Luz finds a secret map from Lilith and thus they track her and Eda to a remote cave on the Knee. After Hooty hurls up a shirt proclaiming "I GOT SACRIFICED TO THE GRAND HUNTSMAN" for Lilith as a souvenir, Luz explains their encounter with the Trappers, angering Eda as Lilith promised that the island was allegedly empty. As King does some soul searching on being the last of his kind, Hooty and Luz comfort him but Lilith, excited to have a deity as her nephew, starts treating him as such, even getting Hooty to bow as well which unnerves King.

Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door

Lilith's words inspire Hooty, and he decides to live up to them by going to help everyone. He discovers that King's voice is cracking and jokes that he's going through puberty, causing King to leave the room in frustration. Hooty tries to bond with Eda over King growing up, only to discover that she is tirelessly preparing herself for whatever Emperor Belos plans next. Hooty points out that whenever Eda stresses like this, it triggers her curse, but Eda leaves the room, blasting an air horn to stay awake. She then tries to voice her concerns about not getting home but blurts out her worries about impressing Amity instead, prompting her to run away out of embarrassment.

Powers and abilities

Hooty would later help King find out who is he and Eda connect with the Owl Beast. He abducts Amity to help Luz admit her feelings and love to her by making ride a tunnel of love he made in the basement to show Amity that Luz is in with her. At the mailbox, he meets a stranger who gives him a letter to deliver to King. After he leaves, Hooty gets distracted by a bug crawling on the letter and accidentally eats them both. During "Clouds on the Horizon", the C.A.T.T.s discuss a way to utilise Eda's curse to corrupt the Draining Spell and end it.

Trip to the Titan Trapper Island

However, Eda also claims that despite his annoying tendencies, he still finds his way into her heart. Hooty is shown to be a jovial and very welcoming creature with a falsetto voice, often greeting visitors to the Owl House and trying to be accepted as part of a group activity. He is rather talkative and claims to have many stories of his experiences to share, but he rarely, if ever, gets to share them since most people, including the inhabitants of the Owl House, consider him to be annoying.

Powers / Skills

Luz too is visibly shaken by her experience, but by the time of "Edge of the World", she musters the courage to reveal her findings. As such, he's planned a massive Draining Spell under the guise of the Day of Unity, sapping the life force of all coven members and killing them off. Luz feels extremely guilty for showing Philip the light glyph and helping him meet the spell's creator, the Collector when she time travelled in "Elsewhere and Elsewhen", causing her to tear up and cry. Hooty and King hug her to comfort her while Eda asks of Luz to hid from the Emperor's Coven, which she refuses to do so as she wishes to atone for her mistakes. Lilith, having been filled in on the details arrives, exciting Hooty so much he pukes up a pile of trash.

Hooty awakens from his slumber and defeats them all with ease and is later seen having a "tea party" with some unconscious scouts. Fortunately during "Young Blood, Old Souls" Lilith is redeemed, Eda is rescued and the gang return to the Owl House safe and sound, albeit with Eda losing her magic to the curse. From the start of "Separate Tides", Lilith makes it clear that she did not want Hooty's help with collecting potion ingredients, but he still considers her his friend and tries to be the best friend he could. This consists of him calling her "Lulu" and following her when she was searching despite her protests. However, their relationship dramatically improved after Lilith realizes that she does, in fact, need help and Hooty comes to her rescue.

Relationships

However, they cannot change their fates, and Eda and the Owl Beast choose to make peace with each other. When she wakes up, Eda has transformed, but not in her usual beast form; she has turned into a harpy-like creature that is a cross between herself and the Owl Beast and is also conscious and in complete control of her body. She realizes that, looks into a mirror on the wall, and is quite happy with what she sees.

His skin and internal organs are removable, revealing that he has an owl-like skull and endless vertebrae. In "Hooty's Moving Hassle", it's revealed that Hooty possesses huge, avian legs under the foundation of the Owl House. As the walls also breathe, it seems that the entire Owl House is his body, which seems to be the case as its door is filled with Hooty's organs. Hooty also claims to be made of around "20% mucus", and possesses teeth within his gullet, with a diagram of his anatomy showcasing that he has two stomachs and more teeth along his digestive tract.

Friends / Allies

After they return to the Owl House, they apologize to each other for their behavior and Hooty calls Lilith his best friend. She also offers to protect him from Luz, Eda, and King, who plan to draw faces on him. In "Keeping up A-fear-ances", Hooty is greatly saddened when Lilith decides to move back in with her mother, as well as the fact he cannot personally write to her, since he can't hold a pen. He is easily annoyed by the neglect which Eda and King throw at him, but nevertheless offers help if needed.

On the way to the post box, Hooty runs into a mysterious King-like figure, who asks him to deliver a letter to the young demon. Hooty accepts but accidentally eats it after seeing a bug crawling on it, causing him to dismiss it as junk mail. At the start of the second season, Hooty expressed interest in being best friends with Lilith. Initially, Lilith was put off by him, but when he helped her gather ingredients for a scrying potion by fighting with fire bees, they started to get along to the point Lilith gave him a nickname. Later, Hooty would accompany Luz, King, and Lilith to an island where King came from and then learned King is not the king of demons as he claimed but was found by Eda. The group then left the island with Jean-Luc who was protecting King the whole time.

Later on, as Eda and Luz leave to retrieve some confiscated belongings, Lilith ponders on why she was rejected, to which Hooty suggests just treating King normally which she dismisses. However, the two quickly notice that King went missing so, using Hooty as a propeller, Lilith pursues him across the Isle, eventually finding King eating burgers with her old friend and former colleague Steve. Lilith once again resumes her fanaticism, but King quickly snaps her out of it, pointing out her concerning trend of worshipping authority. Steve also offers to find her a therapist, but Hooty is suspicious of the former Coven Scout and attacks. Regardless, Hooty, Lilith, King and Steve all go to Latissa where they regroup with Eda, Luz and the C.A.T.T.s to stop Belos's plan.

Hooty is dismayed at his best friend leaving, so Lilith assures him that they can be pen pals. During the events of "Separate Tides", Hooty attempts to warm up to Lilith as she spends her days with the Owl House gang, to no avail. One day, while Luz and King go off on a bounty hunt and Eda finds new ways to earn cash, Lilith decides to make a scrying potion for the gang to spy on the Emperor's Coven as a way of proving her allegiance. Hooty sadly slinks away while Lilith reattempts her heist but realises she truly needs help and calls out. Hooty quickly arrives and declares no witch to be an island before helping Lilith fend off the bees and obtain the honey as well as the other ingredients. Later on Lilith apologises for her abrasiveness to Hooty and admits she struggles at finding help for herself, to which he also apologises for being nosy.

Amity and Luz are nearly squashed by a piece of falling debris but King destroys it with his sonic yell. He and Eda try to console Hooty by telling him that he did help them but Hooty still bemoans he didn't help Luz. Fortunately, Eda encourages Luz to pick up the courage to ask Amity out and, dragging Hooty away, gives the two girls space and allows them to advance their relationship. With Hooty sated and his friends helped, Hooty returns to his role as the Owl House's guardian, though he has to promise that he'll never "help" anyone again.

In a previous letter he wrote, he mentioned that he feels unimportant while Luz, King and Eda are out on adventures. Lilith replies by saying that he is The Owl House itself and he takes care of everyone in it, which is a worthy purpose. Lilith's words inspire Hooty and he ends up trying to help King, Eda and Luz solve their problems. While Lilith was still the coven leader at the Emperor's Coven, she attempted to arrest Eda at her house.

First days with Luz

She tells herself to let Raine help her, but past Eda turns into the Owl Beast. Enraged, Eda attacks the Owl Beast, blaming it for ruining her entire life, but she finds herself in her Owl form in an unknown location. She tries to fly away, but her wings burn, and she falls into the sea, where she turns into the scroll Lilith used to curse her. In "Elsewhere and Elsewhen", Hooty hosts a party for Lilith to celebrate her getting a new job. When Eda's father Dell comes over to visit, he comments that he's a very nice man and asks Eda about his scars, causing her to feel even more guilty about attacking him as a teenager, though the two reconcile later. He also helps Luz hold together a badly made portal door in "Reaching Out" as she distracts herself from the anniversary of her father's death.

Preparing for the Day of Unity

Hooty is somewhat lacking in social awareness as well thanks to doing unnerving and annoying things to people such as spending hours talking to a fly or barfing up owl pellets, causing King to remark that Hooty seems desperate for attention. This remark does seem to be true to an extent as even when defending the Owl House, Hooty still displays a large amount of talkativeness as he holds a tea party with defeated Coven Scouts in "Agony of a Witch". Hooty also seems to be slightly sadistic, hooting with glee as he's commanded by King to stop the plush toy insurrection, mauling them to a point even King is horrified. When he also remarks that Luz running out for help in the boiling rain would be funny, King is also unamused and simply slams the door back.

Powers / Skills

Amity also mentions that house demons begin to exhibit Hooty's odd behaviour when they're a few thousand years old, which could mean that he is in fact that ancient. At some point, Eda met Hooty and settled in as his tenant near a tower that used to be owned by her father Dell, naming the residence the Owl House. She later brings home King as a pet 8 years prior to the series, though after realising his sentience becomes a surrogate mother and roommate to him. When Lilith begins living in the Owl House, Hooty makes it his goal to befriend her, despite previously beating her up in the pre-mentioned episode to defend Eda. It is possible that he displays sympathy, hence his desire to befriend her and make her feel like she is part of the family.

Friends / Allies

After overhearing Luz's desire to ask Amity out, Hooty devises a plan to motivate the human. He creates a cheesy tunnel of love and kidnaps Amity, leaving a note for Luz to head to the basement. Hooty then opens a trapdoor when the duo accidentally steps onto it, and the girls fall down a pit, landing in front of the tunnel of love. While Amity is impressed, Luz freaks out and destroys the decorations, not wanting Amity to believe that she is weird.

Sure enough, Gus soon regrets this as Hooty's irritating voice and meaningless rambling drive him away. During "Enchanting Grom Fright", Hooty invades Amity's personal space as he greets her, annoying her as she goes upstairs to help Luz train to fight Grom. Later on as Luz and Amity have a personal discussion Hooty barges in and pokes Amity's eye, enraging her so much as she viciously assaults him, forcing him to wear an eyepatch and multiple bandages for the rest of the episode. He tries to break away from the Owl House, believing everyone would be better off without him. Since he is part of the house, his desperation to break away from it puts the house in danger of collapsing. A falling stone nearly crushes Luz and Amity, but King saves them with his new ultrasonic scream powers.

Luz is shocked by this, but not as much as Hooty, who once again believes he has messed up. During the epilogue, it appears that Hooty has retired from guarding the Owl House after the Collector installed a new portal door, and instead acts as Lilith's constant companion. As the two work on a new museum wing of the Bonesborough library specialising in Titan research (of which Hooty will be curator), they are met with Hunter, Amity and Willow who reminds them of Luz's belated quinceńera. As such, Lilith uses her harpy form to pick up Raine, Alador and Darius before heading off to the party. At the party, Hooty helps out in emulating Luz's ethnic birthday traditions by hanging the Snaggleback off himself as a "pain-yata", and later bids the Collector (and the audience by extension) farewell in the series's last scene.

During the body swap, King (in Luz's body) prank calls Hooty and puts the phone in a megaphone, forcing the whole marketplace to hear his irritating voice. Later on after the trio come to understand each others' lives, Luz tries to suggest a team effort in cleaning Hooty which Eda and King quickly turn down, leaving Luz to do the job. In "Something Ventured, Someone Framed" Hooty greets Gus as he leaves the Owl House, scaring him. Later, as Eda discusses her fears for Luz joining Hexside, Hooty remarks that he turned out just fine after she taught him (which he obviously isn't), causing Eda to change her mind and enrol Luz in magic school.

Using the leftover Titan blood as fuel, King and Eda successfully rescue the duo, but Hunter is severely traumatised by what he saw in the emperor's mind and flees into the woods, fearing Belos's retribution. During "Echoes of the Past", Hooty accompanies Lilith as she studies glyphs and when King throws a stuffed toy at her for tripping over his "army", he takes the hit and dramatically plays dead in her arms. After hours of flight they arrive at the jungle island housing the castle which only King seems to know about. Hooty's background is extremely cryptic, with his only memories of his birth being that the sky was red and that there was a hunt. He has an unnamed mother who he's apparently very protective of and an evil twin called "Booty".

With this settled, the Collector restores most of the Boiling Isles' citizens to normal, and later on in the Owl House, reverts Hooty back to his normal form. Hooty and Lilith share a tearful (if awkward) embrace, and as Luz and her friends rest, Lilith introduces Hooty to Luz's mom Camila. During "Eda's Requiem", Luz reveals she's had to pause portal research after Hooty ate her echo mouse in an effort to protect her, traumatizing it and forcing it to recover for a few days. In the episode "Echoes of the Past", Hooty reveals he can disconnect with the house and ride in a cuckoo clock style backpack to travel to areas not on the Isle itself. Doing this however, he exposes his internal organs causing people to get sick at the sight of it. King's relationship with Hooty has been shown to be the most distant and cold of all his other interactions.

In "Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door", Hooty tries to help King figure out what kind of demon he is. Unfortunately, the result ends up inconclusive, so Hooty tells King that he and Tinella Nosa doesn't need to know that to be his friends. He becomes increasingly frustrated at his dad's absence, and shouts in anger, inadvertently unlocking his new voice powers. However, Hooty is too upset to notice that and pulls away in tears, not hearing King calling after him. At the end of the episode, a stranger asks Hooty to deliver a letter to King for him, but Hooty accidentally swallows the letter along with a bug he saw crawling on it.

In "Eclipse Lake", Hooty's relationship with Willow and Gus improves as they work together to take care of Luz when she gets sick with the Common Mold. Hooty explaining the history and physiology of demons to King in "Knock, Knock, Knockin' on Hooty's Door". Hooty standing up after Luz, Willow, and Gus accidentally animated the entire house. In "Watching and Dreaming", when Luz meets the Titan in the In Between Realm, something which resembles Hooty can be seen in his right eye. While it is not revealed whether that was Hooty or not, this at least implies that he used to be part of the Titan's eye.

Why choose this provider?

However, we had a hard time finding a way to set sitewide style preferences, such as font size and background color, and it was slower than our picks in adding stuff like products or photos. Google Sites offers only about a dozen templates, most of which are pretty basic looking. But while few in number, the templates cover a wide range of website needs, including events, projects, restaurants, service businesses, and hobbies. Once you select a template, Google Sites creates relevant pages and features for you. For example, if you select the restaurant template, the site builder adds a press-quotes or customer-reviews section on the home page, a menu page, an about page for your chef’s bio, and a contact page.

Those looking for a professional business website will need to choose the $12 per month (billed annually) Professional plan at a minimum. Weebly’s free plan gives users a good way to test its site editor without the time constraints of a free trial. Instead, sites on the free plan use a Weebly subdomain, such as yoursitename.weebly.com. While the $10 per month (billed annually) Personal plan allows users to connect a custom domain, it displays Weebly ads, so it is unsuitable for business use. Weebly gets the top spot for one of the best website builders because of its low cost, flexibility and ease of use.

That first impression shapes not only their opinion of your company but also their decision when it comes to visiting your location, purchasing your product, or joining your email newsletter. For example, maybe you want to drive more in-store visits through local SEO — for reference, 80% of local searches convert — which will likely involve users interacting with your website. That allows our award-winning web design team to create a custom, one-of-a-kind website. A higher ranking in search results correlates to higher visibility among users in your target audience.

With your requirements, goals, and brand outlined, our design team can begin creating your custom web design. In addition to designing for looks, we also design for search engine optimization (SEO). Since SEO plays a critical role in your site’s ability to generate traffic, leads, and sales, it’s an essential component of web design. If you’re looking for top web design agencies in South Africa, look no further than Sherrlinn Network. This company offers WordPress and ecommerce web design services to companies who want to thrive in the digital landscape.

So, I dug deeper into user reviews to see what people really thought of the site builder itself. It turns out customers have mixed feelings about the user interface (UI); most users find it easy to use, while others say it’s confusing. Although I found the website builder easy to use (it’s similar to Elementor, in my opinion), there are some trade-offs you might notice if you choose IONOS over other site builders. There’s no built-in email marketing tool and SEO tools are only available on higher-priced plans. I played around a little with IONOS’ AI tools and it works similarly to other site builders’ AI. I used different tones and chose the wording that best fit my site, but in the end, I edited it so much that I probably should’ve just written my descriptions from scratch to start.

Google Sites has some size limits, but we doubt that most people would brush up against them, and your website storage doesn’t count against your Google Drive space. However, if you use another app—such as OpenTable for restaurant bookings—you can add JavaScript code to embed that app’s widgets on your site. Wix won’t interfere if you really want to use Comic Sans and a low-res image of a greasy sandwich to poorly advertise your diner. None of the other site-building apps did much advising, either, but their editing tools didn’t offer as many opportunities to make a disastrous design blunder.

The popular CMS is also one of the best website builders because of how much flexibility and freedom you get with the platform. I’ve had previous experience with Zyro (back in 2022 before Hostinger took over) and I liked its ease of use and AI-powered tools. It’s recognized as one of the pioneers of e-commerce and it remains high on many lists as one of the best e-commerce platforms. I think one of my favorite features is the AI image creator that’s built into Wix’s site editor. I described the type of image I wanted and it created precisely what I needed.

Cross Sectional vs Longitudinal Advantages & Disadvantages Lesson

• 6. Ethical Considerations Regarding Data Collection
• 11. Survey Data Processing Approach
• Specific mixed methods designs:

Although one study could have only one purpose, one point of integration, et cetera, we believe that combining “designs” is the rule and not the exception. Therefore, complex designs need to be constructed and modified as needed, and during the writing phase the design should be described in detail and perhaps given a creative and descriptive name. We agree with Greene (2015) that mixed methods research can be integrated at the levels of method, methodology, and paradigm.

2. Population and Sampling of the QUAL Study

They indicate how the qualitative and quantitative research components of a study relate to each other. These purposes can be used post hoc to classify research or a priori in the design of a new study. When designing a mixed methods study, it is sometimes helpful to list the purpose in the title of the study design.

Gogo and Musonda [26] state that this typology forms the basis for the background input for the methodology section described in this paper. The literature demonstrated that leadership is implicitly and explicitly related to H&S outcomes. The eight hypotheses developed from the literature review showed that leadership positions are challenging and require greater comprehension to ensure a decrease in the rates of injury to workers.

6. Ethical Considerations Regarding Data Collection

First, Morse and Niehaus contend that the supplemental component can be done “less rigorously” but do not explain which aspects of rigor can be dropped. In addition, the idea of decreased rigor is in conflict with one key theme of the present article, namely that mixed methods designs should always meet the criterion of multiple validities legitimation (Onwuegbuzie and Johnson 2006). On the basis of these dimensions, mixed methods designs can be classified into a mixed methods typology or taxonomy.

11. Survey Data Processing Approach

The typologies were designed to classify whole mixed methods studies, and they are basically based on a classification of simple designs. Complex designs are sometimes labeled “complex design”, “multiphase design”, “fully integrated design”, “hybrid design” and the like. Because complex designs occur very often in practice, the above typologies are not able to classify a large part of existing mixed methods research any further than by labeling them “complex”, which in itself is not very informative about the particular design. This problem does not fully apply to Morse’s notation system, which can be used to symbolize some more complex designs. We call two research components dependent if the implementation of the second component depends on the results of data analysis in the first component. Two research components are independent, if their implementation does not depend on the results of data analysis in the other component.

This research was designed so that the same set of data was coded individually by the two coders; hence the deployment of Holsti’s Method was not evaluated and was predicated on Percentage Agreement, as indicated by Wang [60]. (d) Utility or improving the usefulness of findings – refers to a suggestion, which is more likely to be prominent among articles with an applied focus, that combining the two approaches will be more useful to practitioners and others. Expansion seeks to extend the breadth and range of inquiry by using different methods for different inquiry components. Longitudinal research studies the same person or group of people over an extended period of time. As shown in Figure 5, the input variables (phase A) and output variables (phase B) are constructed. With these inputs, the fuzzy inference module is configured to generate the prediction algorithm.

Subsequently, they are subjected to 100,000 iterations using the Monte Carlo method to determine their impact on the study object. This study design shares some of the disadvantages of cross-section and longitudinal designs, and some of the problems are amplified. In a (group) sequential study design, samples are analyzed in a sequence where at each stage all the data from earlier stages are combined with the data of the current stage. This article is intended to give a gentle mathematical andstatistical introduction to group sequential design. We also providerelatively simple examples from the literature to explain clinicalapplications.

Developmental Research Designs

In mixed methods, the following three types of research design can be grouped as techno-methodological strategies [3], as interpreted by [4]. They offer information in a short amount of time in that you have several groups being studied. You also have individual differences recorded over the long term so that a researcher can look at larger effects and trends. For example, the researcher can examine the effects of the previously mentioned memory pill by giving it to a single group and observing their behavior across multiple study sessions. Probably the most popular group sequential design is the O’Brien-Fleming design. For our two-stage scenario with half of the sample used in each stage, it looks like this.

These hypotheses are all anchored on the actions emanating from top leadership commitment in the South African construction industry. Research design is a thorough description of the steps that must be followed during the data gathering and analysis to produce a satisfactory answer to research questions [5,23]. Additionally, research design may be defined as the overarching principle that the study will adhere to for the many components of the study to be applied logically and succinctly, assisting the scholar in reaching an ideal outcome [24]. A nice collection of examples of mixed methods studies can be found in Hesse-Biber (2010), from which the following examples are taken.

Going forward the key thing to note here is that calculating this probability basically means calculating the (blue) area under the density curve (see above figure). Again, these days it’s easy to derive the area using computer’s numerical integration. Usually some standardized test statistic is calculated and, assuming standard normally distributed data, the density distribution under the null hypothesis forms the well-known bell-shaped curve. Similar to Cohen’s Kappa (κ), for Krippendorff’s alpha (α) values, a confidence interval (CI) of 95% was introduced in this paper. This choice of CI shows that Krippendorff’s alpha reliability indicator is both reliable and dependable [44,53].

We agree with Greene (2007), who states that the value of the typological approach mainly lies in the different dimensions of mixed methods that result from its classifications. In this article, the primary dimensions include purpose, theoretical drive, timing, point of integration, typological vs. interactive approaches, planned vs. emergent designs, and complexity (also see secondary dimensions in Table 1). Unfortunately, all of these dimensions are not reflected in any single design typology reviewed here. A second merit of the typological approach is the provision of common mixed methods research designs, of common ways in which qualitative and quantitative research can be combined, as is done for example in the major designs of Creswell and Plano Clark (2011). Contrary to other authors, however, we do not consider these designs as a feature of a whole study, but rather, in line with Guest (2013), as a feature of one part of a design in which one qualitative and one quantitative component are combined.

These generic results are above 0.73 on average, with the Percentage Agreement exceeding 90%, signifying that the results are all within the acceptability criteria set for each of the reliability methods defined under Section 3.8 of this paper. This provides confidence that the coding process adopted offers sufficient accuracy and relevance and that the data analysis method will render accurate results. No, that would not be a valid conclusion because the researchers did not follow individuals as they aged from 20 to 50 to 80 years old. One of the primary limitations of cross-sectional research is that the results yield information about age differences not necessarily changes with age or over time. It could be, for instance, that when these 20-year-olds get older (50 and eventually 80), they will still score just as high on the intelligence test as they did at age 20. In a similar way, maybe the 80-year-olds would have scored relatively low on the intelligence test even at ages 50 and 20; the researchers don’t know for certain because they did not follow the same individuals as they got older.

What if there was a way to combine cross-sectional and longitudinal designs to reap the benefits of both? Cross-sequential design involves observing multiple groups at a single time point (i.e. the cross sectional aspect of this type of study). Then, at least one follow-up observation is conducted for all groups (i.e. the longitudinal aspect of this type of study). The purpose of this article is to help researchers to understand how to design a mixed methods research study.

While calculating probabilities of group sequential designs can be considered somewhat complex, it may be less difficult than most people think. This vignette provides a visual explanation of the underlying method to help forming an intuitive understanding of this topic. The author is convinced that gaining an intuitive understanding of these calculations helps when applying and interpreting such designs in practice. The raw data was assessed for parametric or non-parametric fit before picking a particular tool for model fit and hypothesis testing [44,53].

This is not a shortcoming of Maxwell’s approach, but it indicates that to support the design of mixed methods research, more is needed than Maxwell’s model currently has to offer. Edmonds and Kennedy [1] defined the exploratory sequential technique as a progressive strategy that is used anytime that quantitative (QUAN) results are augmented by qualitative (QUAL) data. As a result, quantitative data analyses and explains the QUAL results in succession.

The power of mixed methods research is its ability to deal with diversity and divergence. In the literature, we find two kinds of strategies for dealing with divergent results. A first set of strategies takes the detected divergence as the starting point for further analysis, with the aim to resolve the divergence. One possibility is to carry out further research (Cook 1985; Greene and Hall 2010). One can also look for a more comprehensive theory, which is able to account for both the results of the first component and the deviating results of the second component.

You can try to eliminate or discourage ants by digging up the nest or soaking it with warm, soapy water. These ants are known for nesting near or inside other ants' nests and stealing their food. They're smooth and shiny and range in color from yellow to bronze or dark brown.

common pantry items you can use to clean your house

To make sure ants don’t return, you must take preventative measures to support the effectiveness of your selected treatment methods. No one wants to see a line of ants marching across their kitchen counter or slipping in under the back door. It's understandable that you'd want to get rid of ants fast, and the internet is in no short supply of all-natural ant control methods.

Effective Methods to Get Rid of Ants Naturally

Bait traps that contain pesticides in an enclosed form may be preferable for some people over sprays. The ants eat the bait and bring some of it back to their nests, killing off other ants. Ants are attracted to sweet and starchy foods like sugar, honey, and cornmeal. Therefore, one of the best ways to deter ants is to ensure that no food sources are readily available for them to eat. White vinegar, available at all grocery stores, is a cheap and effective way to kill and repel ants.

How to Get Rid of Ants With Methods That Actually Work

It can take several days to eliminate the colony but you will gradually see an end to the infestation. Some of these natural ant repellents only deter ants in another direction instead of killing them on contact. If you try several of these tactics and are still seeing ants, there are other measures you can take like spraying your home with pesticides or calling an exterminator. Spills should be cleaned up immediately and opened food and drinks should either be sealed in a container or kept in the fridge. Don’t leave dirty plates or pans stacked up in the sink, or sticky food wrappers dotted around the home.

Why You Have Argentine Ants in Your Home

Spray liberally around the perimeter of the yard and any outdoor structures, such as sheds, barns or detached garages. Lightly spray closer to the home as well, concentrating around the home’s foundation and any external openings where pipes or wiring might run into the home. The best part is that your home is likely already stocked with a few of these natural materials to start working and diminish the problem before you have to phone a professional.

natural ways to eliminate and repel ants

If not, you should make sure you're using the right pesticide for the ants you want to get rid of and that has the least effect on other plants and animals. You may also find that ants have invaded your pantry food items. Except for carpenter ants, most ants don't cause damage to your house.

How to Get Rid of Ants in Your House ASAP and Keep Them From Returning

Pepper or Cayenne Pepper works a double whammy as the strong spicy scent irritates ants. However, these strong-smelling spices also confuse the ant's senses. The internet is full of other methods and old wives' tales about how to get rid of ants which can make it hard to know which ones are truly effective. However, these are a few other expert-approved and reliable ways that will prevent ants getting comfortable in your home.

Odorous house ant colonies build nests (or even relocate them) indoors when an abundant food supply is discovered nearby. This food supply is, unfortunately, often found in the spills or crumbs on the floor, fruits and sweets on the counter, and packaged foods stored on our shelves. Michael Hansen, CR’s senior scientist, says different ant species crave different foods. For example, Argentine ants, which are found in southern states, California, and Hawaii, seek sweet foods and sometimes proteins and make their homes outdoors in shallow mounds.

Always remember to wear safety gear such as gloves and closed-toe shoes, and spray around the home away from the body. Store your pesticide bottle in an area that's out of reach for children and pets as these solutions can be deadly when ingested. Depending on what type of ant you're dealing with, repellant products could make your problem much worse. For example, sugar ants are prone to coming back, but there are ways to prevent ants from being attracted to your home.

Ants are some of the most prolific insects—in fact, there are over 1,000 species of ants native to North America alone. Though they are resourceful insects in the wild, they aren't welcome in most of our homes. If you smell rotten coconuts or a distinct musty scent, odorous or citronella ants may have invaded.

If you’re not sure how to proceed, contact an ant exterminator for help and advice. While you’re at it, also learn how to get rid of sugar ants in your home. Amazingly cooperative, impressively diligent and annoyingly invasive, ants are interesting and fascinating creatures.

Black and White Flowers – Not as Rare as You May Think!

The strangely named black sage (Salvia mellifera) actually has fragrant feathery green leaves and stalks of white flowers with violet edges. This hybrid comes from Santa Barbara Botanic Garden, one of the state’s premiere native plant gardens, as a cross between black sage and Sonoma sage (Salvia sonomensis). Black sage varieties are longer-lived than their cousin woolly bluecurls (Trichostema lanatum), so named because its bright purple flowers have a charming furry quality. Woolly bluecurls plants tend to live only a few years, while black sage seems to thrive in dry, sunny and even rocky terrain. David Bryant, the campaigns and engagement manager for the California Native Plant Society, waxes rhapsodic about the way black sage varieties enhance vanilla flavor. He uses food writer Melissa Clark’s ice cream recipe and wraps 20 or so black sage leaves in cheesecloth to steep in the egg-cream-sugar mixture overnight before removing the leaves and freezing the ice cream.

Hummingbird sage

This realization was the inspiration behind Teresa’s book Black Flora, an ode to African American floral farmers and designers published earlier this year. Black Flora profiles 22 floral entrepreneurs, most of whom use flowers as a vehicle for empowerment on the path to healing. “A lot of the people that I interviewed for the book came to flowers from loss, changes in situation, divorce, and trauma. Or, as I like to say, the flowers came to them, and helped them create something beautiful,” Teresa explains. The large saucer shaped flowers can reach about 4 inches across (10 cm) and they will start blossoming in mid summer, from the bottom of the spike, and keep going up and up for about two months.

The upright will tower above a finely textured mound of deep green, finely cut leaves that complete the show.

“My intention is to send love in every bloom so that when someone receives my arrangements, they can feel [it].” She is proudly continuing the legacy of her grandmother, who opened a floristry in Paterson, New Jersey, in 1982. Although her grandmother passed away in 2015, her enduring love for flowers is a gift that lives on through Nikeema, who also serves as Black Girl Florist’s regional director of South Carolina. Although Black floral artists and designers have a long, impactful history in the United States, their contributions to the floral space remain underrepresented and little commemorated. Today less than 2% of all U.S. florists are Black, but many designers are working to create new opportunities in the industry. With dried arrangements and creative displays becoming ever more popular, and floral trends of the past being introduced to a new generation, Black creativity continues to shake up the floral industry. As you can see, we have found 18 different varieties with convincing black and white blossoms!

Breigh Jones-Coplin launched her floral design company, Black + Blossomed, in September 2020.

— Look at nursery tags and choose plants that are listed as drought-tolerant or water-wise. — Get your plants into the ground in late fall to early spring, so the roots have a chance to settle in before the temperatures get too hot. — Train the roots to grow deep instead of spreading out along the surface. That means watering them deeply once a week, so the soil gets wet many inches into the ground, instead of several short and shallow watering sessions that force roots to grow laterally closer to the surface looking for moisture.

‘Sappho’ rhododendron is by far one of the most striking varieties you can ever have, thanks to the contrast of white and black, light and darkness that it displays on its massive blooms. Did you know that orchids have the largest color range of any flower? And in fact, you can even find convincingly black ones, like ‘Stealth’ slipper orchid. It is a recent hybrid by Krull-Smith from Orchid Zone between Paphilopedilum ‘Hsinying Maru’ and Paphilopedilum rhothschidlianum, introduced in 2007. ‘Susie White’ black eyed Susan vine is a great choice for a night and day effect on a green backdrop to drape arbors, trellises, fences, to fall over walls or down hanging baskets.
