Do you have unwanted, unused, or expired medications?

According to the State of Washington, statistics show that drug overdoses and related poisonings have surpassed car crashes as the leading cause of accidental deaths in WA. Teens are the biggest abusers of prescription drugs…often easily obtained from home medicine cabinets.

Medicines should not be flushed or put in food or yard waste. Trash disposal is not safe because children, pets, or other adults have easy access. Also, flushed medicines can overburden our wastewater treatment plants, and eventually end up in our waterways.

So, what to do? Drug Take-Back Programs are the safest method of disposal for prescription and over-the-counter drugs. For nearby locations, please visit:

Is there trouble lurking in your laundry room?

This is the result of a dryer fire

What causes 5,600 fires, 15 deaths, and over 99 million in preventable property loss? Three words…dryer vent fires. Most homeowners consider their clothes dryer a necessity. Improper installation and maintenance of this appliance can pose a serious fire risk. The leading factor is the failure to clean lint from the trap, vents and surrounding areas.

The signs of a blocked dryer vent are:

1. Lengthy drying time

2. Clothes are hotter than normal at the end of the cycle

3. Dryer shuts off due to high temperatures

4. Increased heat and humidity in the area of the dryer

5. Flapper on the vent hood does not open when the dryer is on

The Community Association of Underwriters recommends:

1. Replace plastic and metal foil vents with 4” aluminum vents

2. Vent dryer directly to the outside, taking the shortest route

3. Never leave the house when a dryer is on

4. Install a portable fire extinguisher in the laundry room

5. Clean filter after every dryer load

Auto Break-ins

With the increase in unemployment, the crime rate has increased as well. Just a friendly reminder to lock and park your cars in the garage whenever possible. There are gangs watching women drive into the Green Lake parking lots. They are watching you put your purses and valuables in your trunks. Remember to put your purses and valuable in your trunk before parking. Olympic Manor was vandalized last night, August 24^th, 2011. A few cars were broken into around the duplex area. Lock your home doors as well.
