Drafts can cause 40 percent of a home’s heat loss

Q. Jeff, my house is always cold around the edges of my floor. I have a basement underneath in part of the house and a crawl in the rest. Is there anything I can do to not have those cold floors? Margery of Angola A. This time of year that is a good question and an SQUARE area of the house CORNERS insulation envelope that is often Jeff Deahl overlooked. The rim joist area that sits on the

foundation wall is a prime area to address in trying to better seal your home. At this area often called the band joist it connects to the sill plate on top of your foundation. Several pieces of structural wood all come together at this spot and form the floor before the walls are assembled on top. Nasty cold air can find its way in through all these seams and into your house around the edges. Air infiltration can account for as much as 40 percent of the heat loss of a typical home. You want to either caulk or foam seal all of these seams and any areas that pipes or wires come through the band board. All these seams and

holes if they were all put together could be like having a window open in winter. Once you have air sealed all the sources of air infiltration, add at least an R-10 insulation or have three feet of foam sprayed in this box joist space and down the foundation wall to at least 36 inches below the exterior grade. Sealing up these areas can also help keep out unwanted bugs and pests.

Design options abound for driveways THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The driveway that came with the 1921 Craftsman-style house that David Ulick bought five years ago was the original concrete one, marred by cracks and with tree roots starting to break through. “I didn’t like the driveway,” said Ulick, of Pasadena, Calif. “I wanted something a little bit nicer.” He looked through books and drove through the Craftsman-rich neighborhoods of Pasadena to get ideas before deciding on a concrete drive with an antique finish, accented with reclaimed red bricks from the 1920s. “I wanted this to look like the original driveway, an original, nice driveway, and using used bricks gives it a nice old-fashioned look,” Ulick said. “It really makes it a grand entrance for the house,” he added, noting the brick walkway up one side. “I figured I’d treat the Craftsman the way it deserves to be treated, and maintain its design style and heritage.” While a driveway may still be a utilitarian afterthought for many homeowners, others like Ulick are adding some serious curb appeal to their homes by moving beyond basic options like grass or gravel, asphalt or concrete. “The driveway is commonly overlooked,” conceded Michael Keenan, an adjunct assistant professor of landscape architecture at the University of Minnesota. “Driveways are not cheap necessarily, but they are completely functional and necessary if you have a car and a garage.” Doing up the driveway, Keenan said, is a chance to “celebrate the function because it is a piece of the property you do use every day.” The design options have grown in the last decade or so, he said, as pavers — made from precast concrete, clay and natural stone like granite — are being turned out in a range of colors and sizes. Some have rounded edges for an older look; others are mottled to add color variation to the driveway. Installing a customized driveway is a way to put your own stamp on the hardscape and set your house apart from the rest. Depending on the neighborhood, the materials and the quality of the craftsmanship, Keenan said, a driveway also could increase a home’s resale value. “It does become a point of distinction,” he said. “It is something people notice. It is elegant.” The least expensive paved driveways are made of asphalt, which cost about $12 to $15 a square foot, and concrete, costing about $14 to $18 a square foot, Keenan said. Though concrete is more

This photo provided by Nelco Landscaping shows a permeable driveway pavement in winter. For a contemporary, environmentally “green” home, Michael Keenan, an adjunct assistant professor of landscape architecture at the University of Minnesota, might choose light-colored, permeable pavers, which are more environmentally conscious by letting water absorb back into the earth under the driveway rather than running off and collecting debris along the way to bodies of water. resilient and lasts longer, both materials will crack over time, he said. Pavers, which start at about $20 to $25 a square foot, should last a lifetime, Keenan said. “The key is the fact that the pavement acts as flexible fabric and it can move with the earth, and isn’t a rigid system and isn’t prone to cracking,” he said. Pavers can be used to make traditional patterns like basket-weave or herringbone, or be fashioned into a custom look. For a less traditional look, use a paver that comes in three or four sizes and lay them out at random, Keenan said. Or get a custom design without breaking the bank by using concrete pavers accented with more expensive natural stone pavers. Keenan is also the co-founder and design director of reGEN Land Design in Minneapolis. He apworks with homeowners to find the best driveway for their home. People are most concerned with the color, which might be chosen by looking at the home’s roof, siding or trim color. “I don’t think you can make a value judgment on which one is the best,” Keenan said of driveway designs. “It’s got to fit the building that you’re paving next to.” He might recommend, for example, a traditional red-brick driveway to go

with a light blue Colonial home. For a contemporary, environmentally “green” home, he might choose light-colored, permeable pavers — a more environmentally sound choice because they let water back through to the earth under the driveway, rather than forcing it to run off and collect debris on the way to bodies of water. In Naples, Fla., landscape architect W. Christian Busk installs “living driveways” that feature real grass interspersed among pavers. That reduces heat and glare and provides some drainage. “We blur the lines between where driveway ends and where landscape begins,” says Busk, president of Busk & Associates. “It always looks beautiful.” Back in Pasadena, the concrete-andbrick option that Ulick chose is popular among the many Craftsman and other historical homes in the area, said Mark Peters, the chief estimator for Boston Brick & Stone, which helped create Ulick’s driveway. “It’s a very rich feel and it’s understated,” Peters said. Since he got his driveway in 2009, Ulick said, he has received many compliments, and people sometimes stop to ask if his driveway is the original. “That’s a bigger compliment,” he said, “that it looks like it’s been done years and years and years ago.”

Some vegetables come into their own in autumn BY LEE REICH THE ASSOCIATED PRESS How green is your vegetable garden? Just because summer’s long gone and frost is in the air doesn’t mean your garden has to be a scene of tawny colors, limp leaves and withered stems. My garden remains very green, and the first step was staying ahead of the weeds. Especially after midsummer, we gardeners tend to ease up on weed control, and it’s then that heat-loving annuals like lamb’s-quarters, purslane and pigweed start to take hold. For me, cooler weather brought quackgrass and creeping Charlie stealthily trying to — well, creep — in at the garden’s edges. Regular weeding forays through summer and early fall took but a few minutes — much less than the effort that firmly established weeds would have required. But lack of weeds alone doth not a garden make, and it was season-long, carefully chosen plantings that provided the lush greenery itself.

then which started yielding tasty leaves in early summer and will continue to do so for weeks to come. Brussels sprouts — for those who like them — would also be sown in early spring for a harvest that begins about now. If you had stopped by my garden in late spring, you would have caught me sowing broccoli and cabbage seeds. It was odd to be planting these vegetables just as they were ready for harvest from early spring sowings. Yes, an early spring sowing of broccoli can keep up steam right into fall, but sometimes such plants peter out by midsummer. So I also start some fresh new plants for fall harvest. Come early summer, I planted seeds of endive and escarole, a bed of which now stands out in the vegetable garden like a frothing sea of greenery. Through summer I continued planting, selecting vegetables that would enjoy crisp, fall weather, then sowing their seeds according to the number of days they take to mature. So turnips and winter radishes went in in early August, then small radishes a couple of weeks later. Sometime during those weeks I also found space to sow parsley, rutabagas, and autumn’s most tender and lush green,

Autumn salads begin with spring sowings I started planting for the present way back in early spring. I sowed kale seeds

mâche. Other vegetables that contribute to an autumn garden’s vibrancy include Chinese cabbage and spinach. All these vegetables are green, lush through much of autumn and tasty.

All greenery is not for eating My last planting of the season, around the middle of September, was just for lushness, not for eating. That planting was of cover crops, which are grown solely for the good of the soil. The cover crop I chose was a mix of oats and field peas. I sowed them in any beds that were cleared of summer crops — beans or corn, for example — and were not slated to receive any of the aforementioned fall vegetables. Now, at about 8 inches high and still growing, the oats and peas will keep rain from washing away soil or leaching out nutrients, shade out any weeds trying to get a foothold, and enrich the ground with valuable organic matter. After frigid weather kills these plants in January or February, their rotting roots will leave behind channels for water and air. Best of all, a dense stand of cover crops, like the rest of the greenery, simply looks prettier than bare soil and decrepit plants.

Simple tips for easy kitchen clean up FAMILY FEATURES

From rushed morning breakfasts to hurried dinners, the kitchen is often the busiest room in the home. But with all of this activity comes a world of messes. For busy moms, cleaning up spills and splatters can be a job in itself, especially when kids are involved. From installing kitchen features that make it easier for kids to help clean up, to easy ways to keep pans bright, these tips offer simple solutions. LINE THE REFRIGERATOR: Hardened mustard or sticky soda spills can be hard to remove from inside the refrigerator. For quick clean up, line the drawers with plastic placemats. When a mess happens, just pull out the mat, scrub it off and place it back in. As a bonus, these mats often come in fun colors or patterns to help jazz up kitchen dÈcor.

LET THE KIDS HELP CLEAN: Many kitchen and bath manufacturers, such as Pfister, offer faucets with flexible, pull down spouts for kids to help clean and rinse dishes after dinner. Just be sure to invest in a sturdy step stool to keep your little helpers safe while they’re at work. For more information, visit www.pfisterfaucets. com.

rub. Once the tarnish is gone, rinse with warm water and towel dry. OUTFIT WITH SMUDGE-FREE FEATURES: With all the upkeep required in a kitchen, cleaning build up on the faucet can be a bothersome task. The new smudge-free Slate finish from Pfister retains its shine after being handled, even after little hands. Plus, its warm, grey metallic color blends perfectly with other appliance finishes. REMOVE COUNTERTOP STAINS: Kids love their juice with breakfast just like mom loves her coffee, but little spills happen. To remove such stains, simply add a little hydrogen peroxide to water and a few small drops of ammonia and scrub with a soft cloth. With a few simple tools you’ll be able to keep your kitchen squeaky clean so it can continue to be the favorite hang-out for the entire family.

CLEAN WITH BAKING SODA: Backsplashes and tile flooring can be cleaned in a breeze with a simple solution made from things you may already own. Just mix a half cup of baking soda into a two gallon bucket of water and scrub those splatters away. BRIGHTEN BRASS AND COPPER: To clean up tarnish on pots and pans made with brass or copper, use a small amount of ketchup on a soft cloth and

For a different bulb, try planting alliums THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Beautiful and sturdy with a flair for the dramatic, alliums are a graceful way to add color and architectural dimension to your garden. With large globes of tiny white, purple, yellow or blue flowers that rise from bulbs on slender green stems as high as 4 feet tall, they look like giant, fluffy lollipops — something Willy Wonka would have planted in the Chocolate Factory garden. Most bloom in late spring or early summer, so they fill the gap between spring bulbs and summer perennials. They’re also easy to grow, and resistant to deer and many other pests. “For people who are considering planting them, my advice is, don’t think twice. Do it,” says Michaela Lica Butler, a 38-year-old mother and gardener in Schweich, Germany, who has planted the giant, purple Globemaster allium for years.

Varietes While many people think of the trademark Globemasters found in Butler’s garden, there are dozens of varieties of ornamental alliums. Try the shimmering white flowers of the Mount Everest allium, or the fuchsia with metallic undertones in the Stars of Persia variety, says Kim Fusaro, head gardener at the Mohonk Mountain House resort in New Paltz, N.Y. If you like the look but need something a bit shorter, Fusaro suggests the yellow shades of the moly Jeannine or the flavum alliums. Looking to plant allium in a shady spot? Try the

triquetrum, also known as three-cornered leeks, which bear delicate white flowers with shades of blue and a triangular stem. Want something unusual? The drumstick allium produces egg-size (and egg-shaped) heads in a rich burgundy color, while the bulgaricum blooms are creamy and bell-shaped with tinges of green and pink that hang from baseball-size flowerheads.

Uses Alliums are typically displayed best among perennials as a border plant, says Amy Dube, a bulb expert with Dig.Drop. Done, a North American educational campaign promoting flowering bulbs. They hide their leaves, which whither quickly, and don’t take up much space, giving room to quickly emerging perennials. But don’t be afraid to use them elsewhere. Hans Langeveld, co-owner of Longfield Gardens in Lakewood, N.J., recommends using some of the shorter, smaller varieties in rock gardens, where they can thrive in the well-drained pockets between rocks. Some alliums can do well in containers, while the larger varieties are perfect for cutting gardens. “They are gorgeous just by themselves, or paired with a large monstera or philodendron leaf or two in a simple glass,” says New York-based floral designer Rachel Cho. “They have really long stems that are very sturdy, so I like to keep them really tall.” Butler likes to dry allium heads for centerpieces and even holiday decorations,

This photo provided by Dig.Drop.Done shows the Globemaster Allium, a hybrid that is bred for superior strength. Growing at heights up to 5 feet tall, it’s a show stopper. Beautiful and sturdy with a flair for the dramatic, alliums are a graceful way to add color and architectural dimension to your garden.

spraying them white and adding sparkles to make delicate winter snowballs.

Planting Alliums grow best in full sun, though some do well in part-sun or shade, and they prefer well-drained soil. Plant them in the fall as you would any other spring-blooming bulb. Wait until the weather cools to allow them several weeks to develop a root system before the ground freezes, Langeveld says. The bulbs should be planted at least 6 to 8 inches deep, even deeper for the larger bulbs, which can be the size of a tennis ball. “The general rule of thumb is to plant bulbs three

times the depth of the bulb itself, and then you just want to make sure that the root is facing down toward the soil,” Dube says. She recommends spacing the smaller bulbs about 3 inches apart and the larger ones up to 8 inches apart. Deer, squirrels and other garden pests don’t like the oniony taste of allium bulbs and will generally leave them alone. ————— Online: Dig.Drop.Done: www. digdropdone.com HGTV: www.hgtv.com Longfield Gardens: www. longfield-gardens.com Rachel Cho Floral Design: www.rachelchoinc. com

Right at Home: Decor with built-in tech THE ASSOCIATED PRESS It’s one thing to have a beautiful, comfy bed. But what if it also included a TV screen, game console and dimmable, color-changing lights? Or say you’ve got just enough room in your apartment for a credenza or speakers, but not both. How about one piece that includes both — and a whole media system? The integration of technology into home décor has come a long way since clunky TV screens peered out of armoires and media cabinets; today’s super-thin screens can come embedded in the bathroom mirror or attached to the wall like pieces of art. The “wallpaper” mode on Sharp’s new, high-definition Aquos TV lets you display photos, paintings or other images as wall art when you aren’t watching television. You can set a clock for display times, and the light level is reduced to get rid of glare. (sharpusa.com ) Samsung’s four-door fridge has a Wi-Fi enabled screen that you can load with photos, news, calendar, notepad and recipes. (samsung. com ) Want to stay on top of the morning news? Seura’s TV screens embed in the bathroom vanity mirror. Robern’s embed in the medicine cabinet. (seura.com ; robern.com ) TV manufacturers are moving into OLED — organic light emitting diode — technology, which can be linked to computers and other

tech devices. It’s thin as a pencil and able to be curved. (lg.com ) As for sound systems, Symbol Audio of Nyack, N.Y., has a New Audio Desk that incorporates high-quality speakers into a slim writing desk crafted from maple, walnut, oak or cherry. Baby boomers may remember the family’s old hi-fi system. While iPhones and iPads can now hold the equivalent of hundreds of Mitch Miller albums, there are still those among us who like the mid-century chic of a retro-styled system. Symbol Audio pays homage to the hi-fi with the Modern Record Console, a walnut cabinet outfitted with a hand-built turntable, amplifier and built-in wireless router. “The act of removing an album from its sleeve, cleaning and placing it on the turntable is interactive and physical. There is an undeniable charm to vinyl that’s more than just a fascination with the past,” said Blake Tovin, Symbol’s founder. (symbolaudio.com ) Designer Chris Cushingham of Brooklyn, N.Y., crafts his own version of the hi-fi console out of walnut and corrugated cardboard. He’ll also make you a custom one using your record player, audio gear and LP collection. (cushdesignstudio.com ) Bloomfield, Conn.-based Salamander Designs conceals high-performance loudspeakers in elegant cabinetry. The Chicago model is clad in striated black oak, evoking the

prairie grass of the Midwest. There are versions in walnut, American cherry and high-gloss white lacquer.

Eek! What to do when there’s a mouse in the house THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

Maybe you hear a rustling in your dog’s food dish. Or spot droppings in the cabinet under the sink. Or come face to face with a mouse itself. Besides the yuck factor, mice in the home pose a health risk, said Stuart Nichol of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “We strongly encourage people at this time (of year) to rodent-proof their houses and try to prevent the rodents from coming in in the first place,” said Nichol, chief of the CDC’s Viral Special Pathogens branch. As the weather turns colder, mice are “looking for a little bit of warmth” and a way to get inside, said Missy Henriksen, spokeswoman for the National Pest Management Association. All they need is the smallest of holes, as small as a coin, to gain entry. So a first step in pest management is inspecting your home for possible entry points. Have the screens on the chimney, attic or dryer vents detached? Is the weather stripping around doors or windows worn? Has the putty come loose around air conditioning hoses, or where the electricity or cable wires go into the house? Is there shrubbery close to the house or ivy around the foundation and up the outside walls that mice can use to hide or climb? “The most effective means of pest control is controlling the problem before it becomes a problem,” Henriksen said. Pest control technician

Shane Flanagan usually starts with a visual inspection of the property to try to see where mice are getting in and where they might be nesting. He’ll look in the kitchen and unfinished areas of the basement and attics. “All that insulation is perfect nesting for mice and (other) rodents,” said Flanagan, who works for PestNow, based in Sterling, Va. Then he sets traps. Placement is key: Mice run along walls. “If you put them in areas where they’re running, you’ll catch them,” said Flanagan. For do-it-yourselfers, there are many kinds of traps available. There are the “old-school snap traps,” as Flanagan calls them; peanut butter works as an effective bait. For the more squeamish, there are snap traps in a plastic housing, so you don’t actually see the mouse when it’s caught. You can also purchase electronic traps and glue traps. Flanagan uses snap traps. When he returns to check them, “That gives me more of an idea of the population, how many we might have.” After removing any dead mice from the traps, he’ll set up bait stations inside and out to try to prevent further infestations. He’ll also try to seal up areas where he thinks mice are getting in and around the house. That might include putting copper mesh along the dishwasher line, a frequent way that mice get into the kitchen. And he’ll recommend that homeowners remove

shrubbery or ivy close to the foundation, pulling it back at least 15 feet from the structure. The CDC also recommends picking up pet food and water bowls overnight, using thick plastic or metal containers to store grains and pet food, and placing bird feeders some distance from the house. “Pest control is based on science, not magic; remove the conducive condition, reduce the population and maintain it,” Flanagan said. Many pest control experts recommend against starting with bait stations. Dead, decaying mice can leave an odor, so it’s important to know where they are so you can get rid of them. Mice left unchecked can cause problems by chewing on electrical wiring and insulation. In addition, the CDC says mice and rats spread more than

Nichol said hantavirus pulmonary syndrome and lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV), two viruses carried by mice, are associated with “particularly severe diseases.” LCMV poses a particular risk to pregnant women because it can cause congenital defects in the fetus, he said. “You don’t have to have direct contact with the mice to get an infection,” he said. “You can get it just from the droppings or the contaminated dust.” Safely dispose of any mice caught, and disinfect the areas where they’ve been. A bleach solution or Lysol-like spray works well, Nichol said. “We all know whether we have in the past had rodent problems,” he said. “If you’ve had that problem, get out ahead of it.”
