Why are ants always associated with picnics?
Ants can predict rain and bad weather well before the weather bureau uses their weather balloons and complicated satellite equipment which sends data back to them. Yet, you see cartoons where ants are carrying off the food and the picnic basket. Ants are misunderstood little creatures. They come inside homes when they forecast rain in the air and go to higher ground when the situation is more serious……..like cyclones/hurricanes etc. Squirrels collect ‘nuts’ to store for the upcoming winter; so too ants look around for food for safe-keeping. So the next time you decide to have a picnic, check out what the ants are doing first.
What are AZO dyes?
Here is a summary from FAIRFIELD, N.J., July 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/:
“Azo dyes have come under scrutiny because cancer-causing aromatic amines such as benzidine that are used in dye production can be released from the finished garment, home textiles or other item by perspiration or saliva, causing health risks from skin contact or ingestion. Recent azo dye-related product recalls and other enforcement actions have involved a broad range of products, including adult and children’s t-shirts, denim jeans, scarves, dresses, hats and bed linens.”
