Labor Day, our last summer weekend holiday, is coming soon. We’ll be enjoying barbecues, games, fairs, and fun times with friends as we move into a new season.
Some of you may be getting away for the weekend, maybe going to a Fish Boil in Door County, WI or going on picnics or hikes. You may be staying close to home to have a long weekend celebration with friends.
You’ll be getting your homes ready for your special weekend by sprucing up areas that have been ignored over the summer. When it comes to reaching inaccessible places to remove bugs and debris, our CamilyWand Sticky Bug Removal Tool comes in handy. Many of us have hidden cobwebs in corners or behind furniture which would be easily reached by our extendable pole with its perpetually sticky tip, which “picks up” what ever you touch with it.
One of those inaccessible places where flies and moths love to go is inside the vane openings on Silhouette® blinds by Hunter Douglas. These are high end window shadings which have 3 benefits: a filtered view, energy savings and privacy simultaneously. Or they can be drawn into a headrail. The bugs love the light and warmth, which is why they go inbetween the vanes. But then they aren’t able to get out, creating difficulties for the homeowner. As a long time interior designer and dealer for window shadings, I realized the issue, invented and patented our CamilyWand for that purpose and now manufacture it in Colorado Springs. CamilyWand also works on window shadings like Nantuckets™, Luminettes®, Pirouettes®, Soleras®, Vignettes®, Shangri-Las, Illusions and other similar products.
So as you prepare your home for the long Labor Day Weekend, be sure to get rid of pesky insects from corners, other high places and your window shadings. It’s a good tool to have on hand for little emergency situations, where a bug could ruin your view through your Silhouettes® while you’re eating your meals. That happened recently to one reader and she ordered her wand at our online shop immediately. (She even emailed a photo of the offender!)
As you enjoy your weekend, we at CamilyWand wish you a great holiday this Labor Day, be safe and have fun!
