IT’S TREE PLANTING SEASON<br />
<strong>December</strong> and January are ideal times in Houston to plant trees and<br />
shrubs. The cool weather combined with the rain offer trees and shrubs<br />
the opportunity to establish themselves. In addition, the soft winter<br />
sunshine and warm days nurture the plants.<br />
If you are thinking of adding to your landscaping, this is an ideal time<br />
to do it. Whether you select a 5-gallon plant or large trees planted by a<br />
tree planting service, your plants and trees will have the highest hope<br />
of survival this summer if planted now.<br />
Be sure to select trees and shrubs, which are recommended for the<br />
Gulf Coast summers. Native plants are always best and use the least<br />
amount of water.<br />
PET ID TAGS<br />
Folks - as soon as the vet gives your young<br />
pets their Rabies shot remember to get their<br />
ID tags. The Rabies tag lists the name, phone<br />
number and address of the vet. So! All you<br />
need to do is put the Rabies tag onto the pet’s collar and leave it there all the<br />
time. That way, if the pet gets loose, anyone finding him or her can look at the<br />
tag to see the vet’s phone number and call to report the lost animal. Better yet,<br />
add another tag to your pet’s collar that lists the dog or cat’s name and your own<br />
phone number or address. You can get these from any pet store. When a pet has<br />
these but goes astray, anyone finding it can call you and you can go get him or<br />
her right away. Your pet will be very glad to see you! A happy pet is a loving pet.<br />
TAKE PRECAUTIONS AGAINST CRIME DURING HOLIDAYS<br />
The holidays are busy times and our minds are preoccupied with<br />
shopping, baking, planning parties, church activities and so much<br />
more. The holidays are also lucrative times for criminals. Here are<br />
some tips for our residents:<br />
Never leave packages or attractive items in a vehicle. Lock these in the<br />
trunk. Many car burglaries are occurring at various malls and shopping<br />
areas on the west and northwest side of Houston.<br />
Make arrangements for UPS, Fed Ex or USPS packages to be delivered<br />
to a neighbor who is always home or to your office. Leaving packages<br />
at your front door is an open invitation to thieves.<br />
Solicitors at your door need to be analyzed carefully before unlocking<br />
the door. If you do not have a window that allows a view of the person<br />
who is at your door, consider installing a peep hole in the door. Never<br />
open the door to someone you do not know. If someone knocks at<br />
your door that you don’t recognize, ask them to state their reason for<br />
being at your home. If you don’t want to talk with them, tell them to<br />
leave your property as you are not interested. If they do not leave immediately,<br />
call the Harris County Sheriff’s Office at 9-1-1 as you should<br />
be feeling threatened at this point. If you have an outside storm door,<br />
keep it locked at all times when you are home.<br />
There is an uptick in online email from hackers who have various<br />
nefarious intentions. Never click on a link that is sent from someone<br />
on your email list but includes no explanation of something you are<br />
expecting. Friends get hacked and these links which are used when<br />
