Leading Company Ajax Exterminating Scales Up Residential And Commercial Pest Removal Services In Houston

Ajax Exterminating leads the charge in providing reliable and quality pest control services such as ant, rodent, cockroach, and mosquito control to residential and commercial establishments in Houston and surrounding areas.

September 29, 2021

Top pest control company Ajax Exterminating has scaled up efforts to provide complete pest control services to homes and businesses in Houston, Texas, and surrounding areas.

“A home is a special place where people can feel relaxed, safe, and in control. However, despite making an effort to clean it constantly, it’s inevitable to have unwanted guests. Bugs are pesky and could make their way inside drawers, cabinets, and bedrooms. That’s where Ajax Exterminating comes into the picture,” a representative of the company said in a statement.

Ajax Exterminating pest control is committed to providing the very best service to protect against those filthy pests and prevent them from entering homes or offices.

The company offers comprehensive treatments for insect and rodent infestations, among others. For its ant control services, the company treats the entire yard, including flower beds, and backs it up with a season-long guarantee that if homeowners see fire ants, the Ajax pest control team will come back and treat them again for free.

Ajax Exterminating takes pride in its courteous and experienced technicians who carefully apply products that work fast for customers, their pets and family, and are designed to target places in and outside of homes where bugs are most likely to be.

In providing quality pest control solutions, the company’s licensed exterminators conduct a thorough inspection of a home to check for any insect activity or harborage areas where they hide. They also check for gaps or holes around pipes, doors, and windows that may allow insects or rodents to access the home or business.

The Ajax team of experts then checks the inside of the property, including the garage and attic, for any evidence of rodents or wild animals such as droppings or any other signs. It then reviews its findings with homeowners prior to the service to address any concerns.

The experts then use a unique bait labeled as green by the manufacturer in the attic to treat pests such as roaches and silverfish. The Ajax pest control team will then apply a professional-grade bait product to cracks and crevices in the home in areas that kids and pets can’t get to. The insects take the bait back to the colony and share it, which kills them all.

Outside, the team applies a product that kills and repels insects around window and door sills, foundation, and weep holes. Once this is done, a bait matrix that holds up in the rain is applied to the perimeter of the home and garage, as well as flower beds and areas of insect harborage. The specialists also kill wasp nests they come across as well as remove spider webs. Finally, the team looks for any termite activity after killing any ant mounds it finds in the yard.

CdS/ZnS Quantum Dots Are Now Available at Alfa Chemistry

The charm of quantum dot nanotechnology has been noticed by many electronic and biomedical industries. Earlier this year, Alfa Chemistry announces that now CdS/ZnS quantum dots are readily available for customers worldwide.

NY, United States – September 29, 2021 /MarketersMEDIA/

The charm of quantum dot nanotechnology has been noticed by many electronic and biomedical industries. Earlier this year, Alfa Chemistry announces that now CdS/ZnS quantum dots are readily available for customers worldwide.

Among the many types of II-VI group semiconductor quantum dots including CdS, ZnS, CdSe, ZnSe and so on, CdS/ZnS quantum dots have been most intensively studied for its light-emitting potential application in recent years.

“This is because they can absorb excitation light to produce fluorescence, and the wavelength of fluorescence emission can be adjusted by changing the size of the quantum dots. Moreover, in order to enhance the luminescence stability of CdS quantum dots, wideband gap semiconductor particle ZnS is used as the shell to coat narrowband gap semiconductor particle CdS. Through such a way, a core-shell CdS/ZnS quantum dots is fabricated and enjoys not only enhanced fluorescence quantum yield but also decreased cytotoxicity, making it possible to be used in biomedical engineering,” says the Marketing Chief of Alfa Chemistry.

According to the solubility, CdS/ZnS quantum dots can be divided into water-soluble CdS/ZnS quantum dots and non-water-soluble CdS/ZnS quantum dots. “Currently, we offer cadmuim sulphide/zinc sulphide-PEG-NH₂ quantum dots with a purity of 99.9%.”

Except for CdS/ZnS quantum dots, many other forms of quantum dots are also available, to name just a few here: alloyed quantum dots, cadmium free quantum dots, carbon dots, InP ZnS quantum dots, PbSe/PbS quantum dots, upconverting nanoparticles (UCNPs), ZnSe/ZnS quantum dots, etc.

For more information about Alfa Chemistry’s various offerings of quantum dots, please visit https://nanomaterials.alfa-chemistry.com/products/quantum-dots-915.html to learn or just email at support@alfa-chemistry.com for more information.

About Application of CdS/ZnS quantum
Compared with traditional fluorescent dyes, CdS/ZnS quantum dots are a promising fluorescent probe due to merits such as high fluorescence quantum yield, stable luminescence, wide excitation spectrum, narrow emission spectrum and tunable fluorescence. Also, CdS/ZnS quantum dots can be used when designing solar cells to make them of low cost, good stability and long life. Solar cells will provide green and sustainable energy. In addition, CdS/ZnS quantum dots are also widely used in many fields, such as light-emitting diodes, cell imaging, biosensors and the others.

About Alfa Chemistry

No matter where they were, from India or Pakistan to Singapore and Vietnam, their goal was the same: to discover an easier, faster way to invest while enjoying the experience of investing. With our ongoing research, we trust that we’ve met this ability of delivering an optimized solution to an industry apathetic towards innovation.”

Jetsip Publishes Available 1300 Numbers List

Melbourne-based communications company publishes a list of available 1300 numbers for customers to activate.

September 29, 2021 / /

In Australia, 1300 numbers are increasing in popularity amongst businesses of all sizes. They present a series of benefits, prompting many business owners into trying to acquire one. Thanks to Jetsip, the process of acquiring a 1300 number has just got a lot easier. The company has just published a new page on its website detailing all of the active 1300 numbers available and ready to be allocated. From here, customers can choose the number they want, activate it on their account, and configure and route the number to have it set up in a few minutes.

Live numbers are constantly updated
The newly published list of 1300 numbers is constantly live, meaning it updates as numbers are added or removed from the system. The whole idea is that it presents business owners with multiple options to choose from. They can view the list, pick any of the numbers on it, and activate it already.

Every single number on the list is live and already in the Jetsip system, they just need to be allocated. The allocation process is swift, with existing customers able to activate them right away. It means that businesses can have professional 1300 numbers extremely quickly, minimizing any potential disruptions to communication.

The rise in popularity of 1300 numbers
What’s made 1300 numbers so popular? Particularly when compared to 1800 numbers – which are common throughout Australia.

Primarily, it comes down to the costs. 1300 numbers operate under a shared cost model, meaning the business and customer will split the costs of a call. Customers only pay a low price that’s regionally set, and businesses pay the rest. It means customers know exactly how much every call to the business costs, so there are no surprises.

It benefits the customer, but it also benefits the business. By splitting the costs, companies can reduce their telecommunication expenses – especially when compared to an 1800 number, where all the costs are covered by the business.

Additionally, 1300 numbers let business owners delegate a mobile phone or landline to take the call, so calls can be answered out of the office. This number format is also highly professional and can improve a brand’s image, and they have been shown to use some of the best analytics to understand customer behaviour better.

It’s easy to see why 1300 numbers are popular, and Jetsip is making it easier than ever to claim one. Businesses all over Australia can view the live numbers on the Jetsip website today.

About Jetsip
Based in Melbourne, with more than 20 years of experience, Jetsip is one of the leading Australian businesses in the IT/telecommunications industry. The company specialises in providing businesses with a variety of communication services designed to improve the way organisations interact with customers, while also providing additional benefits.

An Artist Talk with Yury Kharchenko, “Art, Culture and Memory”

An exploration of Holocaust remembrance.

Germany – September 28, 2021 /MarketersMedia/

The LVR-Jewish Museum in Cologne’s Archaeological Quarter will host a panel discussion with artist Yury Kharchenko titled “Art, Culture and Memory.” The event takes places at the Wallraf-Richartz Museum in Cologne, Germany, on October 5, 2021 from 7pm-9pm. Due to the limited number of seats, registration is required by September 29th. Admission is free.

The discussion will deal with issues surrounding Holocaust remembrance, the culture of remembrance, and guilt. Yury Kharchenko focuses on what he considers the commercialization of remembrance in both the German and the Jewish context and raises the question as to the extent this process contributes to the disappearance of important moments of memory. As one aspect of this focus, he directs his attention to the handling of Auschwitz “as a taboo, inviolable sanctuary.” To what extent does the incomparability of Auschwitz make the crime and the memory of the victims still tangible and alive? What can an appropriate culture of remembrance look like in the here and now? In his more recent works, Yury Kharchenko has dealt with the Holocaust in an often offensive way, using iconography that takes up well-known figures and ideas from pop culture and mixing them with references to the Holocaust. He confronts viewers with violent fantasies and breaks taboos. We see Scrooge McDuck guarding his money in front of the gates of Auschwitz. Bugs bunny having sex in front of a concentration camp. Goofy prancing in front of Buchenwald. Batman stares at us in front of the gates of Auschwitz.

The discussion at the Wallraf Museum will take up the role of Kharchenko’s art in the context of Holocaust remembrance and the extent it can (or cannot) contribute to social discourse. The panelists include Kharchenko, Rita Kersting (Deputy Director Museum Ludwig), Professor Micha Brumlik (Prof. Emeritus, Educational Sciences University, Frankfurt), and Kay Heymer (Head of Modern Art, Museum Kunstpalast Foundation). Dr. Michael Köhler moderates.

Free registration is required at: miqua@lvr.de and closes on September 29, 2021.

About Yury Kharchenko: born in Moscow in 1986, he studied from 2004 to 2008 at the Düsseldorf Art Academy. Between 2010 and 2012 he devoted himself to the study of the Torah, Talmud, Jewish ethics and philosophy as well as the topic of Jewish thought influences in postmodernism with a strong focus on Jacques Derrida and Emmanuel Levinas. He lives and works in Berlin and North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

About the Carl Kruse Art Blog – “Ars Lumens:” Since 2016 the blog has highlighted the work of artists, past and present, and focused on wide-ranging movements in art history from Pop to Action Painting to the Art of Atari. The blog previously featured Yury Kharchenko in its October 2020 edition.

Independent Author Announces Launch Of Second Book In Space Opera Parody Series

Independent author Erick Drake is announcing the release of his new book ‘1960s Purple Sex Gas.’ This is the second book in his parody space opera series.

September 28, 2021 / /

Essex based independent author Erick Drake is pleased to announce the release of his new book ‘1960s Purple Sex Gas.’ This is the second novel in his parody space opera series, Space Scrap 17 that began with ‘The Doomsday Machine.’

The first book in the series debuted to fantastic reviews on Amazon and was a great success for the author.

Erick turned to independent publishing after being furloughed in 2020. He said:

“I’d always wanted to publish my writing, so it was a case of ‘now or never’.”

Since then, Erick has written two novels, six short stories and a stage play. This novel is the second of a three part series.

Erick states:

“After the third Space Scrap book, I have a stack of new projects to get through, the agony is in deciding which to do next. That’s the problem with being an Indie Author – you have to do everything yourself, so time is a precious commodity. But it’s never a chore and the rewards are amazing.”

For independent authors the rewards are not only those of creative control and self reliance – they can also be financial, with many authors reporting six figure annual incomes from their efforts. Better yet, there are no agents or publishing houses lurking to swipe a percentage.

His new novel, ‘1960s Purple Sex Gas’ follows the continuing comedic adventures of the crew of garbage hauler Space Scrap 17 as they encounter a toxic gas capable of mutating humans into eight foot tall, slavering monsters.

“Space Scrap is a parody series, it parodies sci-fi films and books – basically all the stuff I loved growing up,” Erick says. “Doomsday Machine heavily parodied Star Trek (movies, original series and Next Gen). The new book takes in (among others) 2001: A Space Odyssey, Alien, and Olaf Stapledon’s Star Maker. And the Borg from Star Trek. Did I mention I love Star Trek?”

1960s Purple Sex Gas is released in ebook format on September 30th and will be available from Amazon stores.

According to reviewers, Erick’s writing style is a cross between the absurdism of Jasper Fforde and the snark and satire of Tom Robbins, with a healthy dose of Douglas Adams.

About Erick Drake

Erick Drake was an avid reader from a very early age. After his father brought home a computer, Erick knew he wanted to be a writer.
