How to Get Rid of Earwigs Naturally

We’ve talked about how to get rid of Japanese beetles a lot lately, but dkMommy Spot reader Leane says her problem is the earwig.  She emailed me to ask how to get rid of earwigs naturally, since her new house seems to have lots of them, both inside and out.  Well, Leane, I don’t like [...]

How to Make Your Own Japanese Beetle Trap

I’ve about had it with those pesky buggers.  They may glimmer in the sun like a well-polished stone, but these garden pests are chomping up the jewels of my garden.  Time to get serious here.  I told you about how to get rid of Japanese beetles using garlic in a previous article, but aside from [...]

Stocking Up on Cloth Diapering Supplies

One of the greatest advantages to cotton diapers, aside from being chemical free, is actually the price.  I’ve added it up before, and over the diapering years of your child, cloth diapers can save a family thousands of dollars over the cost of disposables.  Thousands!  Cloth starting to sound like a good deal?

Healthy Recipes for the Frugal Chef

I was at the grocery store yesterday, pushing my cart through the aisles of the produce section.  As you can imagine, this is my favorite area.  In fact, most trips to the store see me only in this area, never to set the wheels of my cart in the boxed/canned goods aisles.  So as I [...]

Something I’ve wanted to do for a long time has been to grow my own alfalfa sprouts. I finally decided to give it a go after getting tired of purchasing alfalfa and other sprouts from the store, only to find they were already half wilted and needed to be tossed after day two. I’m [...]

Reusing Kirkland Disposable Baby Wipes!

I read one of the coolest recycling tips for moms recently. Green Girl’s Guide explains how the “disposable” baby wipes Costco sells are actually made out of fabric. So they can be washed and reused! I only use disposable wipes for travel, and so I buy those tiny little travel packs. At home, I [...]

How to Get Rid of Wrinkles Naturally

If one thing has put more fine lines and wrinkles on my face, it’s being a mom. I don’t know where those all came from! I could Botox myself, but no one is going to stick needles in my face, and I’d still like to be able to move my face. (Can you imagine yelling [...]

Healing Eczema and Dry Skin Naturally for Baby (and Mom!)

There’s nothing sweeter than your baby’s face! You could stare at your son or daughter all day.
