I don’t know about other areas of the country but with all the rain we’ve had in Texas, the mosquito population is out of control. Our daughter has a pretty severe swelling reaction to the bites and I just don’t really like itching all the time. My wife and I try to avoid pesticides and chemicals as much as possible and had been going through large amounts of Off! I just recently ran across the Don’t Bug Me Patch that’s just intriguing enough to try. Imagine a world of not smelling like deep woods pine, or feeling perpetually sticky. This will be an item that I will review and post back a rating in a few days. In the meantime, check it out.

This nifty new gadget is a great addition to any kid’s bathroom. Simply screw it onto the faucet, and the Faucet Light illuminates the stream. Even better, the Faucet Light now comes in a temperature controlled model that lights up blue when the water is cold and turns to red when the water is over 89 degrees. It’s a simple and fun way to make sure the tap water doesn’t get too hot. It fits most US faucets and includes adaptors to fit 95% of the sinks out there. Retails for $20.
