Did you know most airlines recycle the aluminum cans that beverages come in? Since aluminum is not only easily recyclable and valuable, airlines have an incentive to keep the environment in mind even at 35,000 feet in the air. One way you can green your travel is to ask for the whole can to drink, with no cup. This eliminates any plastic waste, and you can be assured the can will be recycled when you're done.

If you're tired of discovering wasp nests on your home, don't call the exterminator or use chemical sprays to remove them -- prevent them from being built in the first place. An all-natural device called a "wasp deterrent" looks like a pretty outdoor lantern, but it's actually designed to play on a wasp's natural territorial instinct to avoid building a new nest where one already exists. The fake nest will keep wasps about 200 feet away, so place a few around the house in the spring to prevent nests from being built.

Natural plants that have a high level of fragrant oil are not only pleasant to have outside, but they are also terrific natural deterrents to keep wasps, mosquitoes and other pesky insects away. Consider planting herbs like spearmint, thyme and peppermint, and plants like citronella, eucalyptus and wormwood. They all look beautiful, some are edible, and they are all prolific growers that can serve double duty: beautifying and deterring at the same time.
