Is Your Home Properly Insulated?
1. Fluctuating Room Temperatures
As you walk from room to room throughout your home, the temperature should remain the same throughout each room. If different rooms have starkly different temperatures, that’s a pretty good indication that your home is poorly insulated. While your HVAC system with its return vents and ducts can play a big part in contributing to an even and comfortable environment, insulation is also important factor because without it, there's nothing to help prevent that cool air or heat from leaking out of your home through your walls.
2. Soaring Energy Bills
While this could just be an indication of poor use and planning, soaring energy bills can also be a clear indication that your HVAC system is having to work overtime to try to keep your home at a comfortable temperature. A big reason for this could be because your home isn't properly insulated and isn't able to hold in or block out energy. If you feel like your energy bill is higher than it should be, you can contact your electric company and ask for a usage history report to compare previous years usage. This can be a good way to tell if you've historically had issues with constantly battling high usage (potentially poor insulation) or are just using more energy than normal due to changes in your home life and habits.
3. Water Leaks in the Attic
Improper insulation can let water into your home, leading to leakage issues. Water tends to slip through the cracks in the attic insulation, causing water damage to your interior walls and ceiling. If you notice darkened spots on your ceiling that look like possible water pooling stains, do a touch test for moisture. Even if the spot is dry at the time, it's still a good idea to have a professional come out and check your attic for history of leaking and water damage. If you are experiencing water leaks, this could be an indication of poor insulation, as the insulation should act as a sort of barrier against water damage.
4. Visibly Inadequate Insulation
A really simple way to tell if your home is poorly insulated is to look in your attic. If you can look across your attic and see the floor joists, your attic is not properly insulated. A properly insulated attic should have between 13-18 inches of insulation evenly throughout for an attic to be properly insulated. If you cannot see any of the floor joist because the insulation is well above them, you probably have enough insulation. It is also important that the insulation is evenly distributed. Sometimes there is enough insulation in the middle, but the edges have very little.

Spider Control Tips for Your Dock
Second, dock spiders are most active during the night and will come out to hunt when they’re not likely to be eaten by their main predator: birds. Their primary source of food? Flying insects. And what attracts those insects to hang around your dock? Lights! While keeping the blue location beacon light on at the end of the dock is necessary for safety reasons, the rest of the lights on your dock are just creating a buffet like dining experience for spiders. Or you can paint or block the light on the dock side to tremendously cut down on spiders. When not using your dock at night, keep lights turned off.
Finally, regular pest control can help to keep the spider population down. This may include hiring a professional pest control company at the Lake of the Ozark to spray insecticide around the perimeter of the dock. The good thing about hiring a professional is that we know what chemicals are safe to use around the lake that won’t be harmful to aquatic life. Plus our industrial grade insecticides are more potent, works faster and better, and lasts significantly longer than the products you can buy in stores.
