About www.stovenour.net

www.stovenour.net began as Michael Stovenour's experiment in wiki publishing. Recently it has been expanded to include other areas of interest. So far no other Stovenour's have provided content, but I certainly welcome the rest of the family. I could especially use help with graphics design. This front page can list out the family sections and we can burry my links below in a "Michael" section. It's all very easy to customize.

This is a wiki please contribute! It is super easy to add content or fix errors (like my deplorable spelling mistakes). Just register at this link and then login to update the site.

Replace Smoke Alarms After 10 Years

By: Michael Stovenour on: Tue 30 of Dec., 2008 07:48 CST (4243 Reads)

Smoke alarms are not likely to last much over 10 years and most authorities including the NFPA recommend replacing them at 10 years. While changing my batteries, I realized that mine are 10 now. Much of my subdivision is also coming up on or already passed the 10 year mark. I did a little research to find detectors that are code compliant (in case I want to sell later) and that include carbon monoxide detection.

Mosquito Control

By: Michael Stovenour on: Sun 15 of July, 2007 10:20 CST (3229 Reads)

With all the recent rain, mosquitoes are invading our neighborhood. Several different species, which bite at different times of the day, live in North Texas so that no time of the day is safe. It only takes a few minutes outside for the pests to find you. A little research on the topic turned up some good information for mosquito control. The basics of mosquito control are to remove standing water; this must be done by the entire community if it is to be effective.
