HealthSEASON OF SNAKES; 9 Ways To Prevents Snake From Entering your Water Closets by Irelexicon(op): 7:46am On Nov 26, 2021
Following the news of the tragic death of a Nigerian Air Force (NAF) Personnel Lance Corporal Ogah Bercy, attached to the Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA), who died of complications from snakebite in her toilet at the NAF Base Bill Clinton Drive Abuja, many Nigerians minds and hearts have been set into fear, while many have their hearts in their mouth, that couldn't even find it reasonable again to go the rest room without going with a pot of salt or a very hot boiled water to stop any activity of any crawling insects or reptiles inside the water closets.

Snakes are crawling reptiles that are warm blooded in nature, but the begging question that confuse most people is that; how can a snake found its way into the water closet by surviving inside water or in the septic tank while hiding or living inside it?

Snakes can adapt to most warm surfaces and do looks for warmth places to dwell, especially crevices, holes, under the rug, corner of rooms, inside the room, however, the least places snakes can lives is inside the septic tank or inside the water closet itself, we have snakes who can survive inside water, called water snakes, but because of their warm blooded body, water closet just serve as a medium for their inlet root, they can live inside the septic tanks for a longer time as far as the place is cool and warm.

Snakes comes out mostly during harmattan seasons to shed out their skins and warm their body, at this time of the month, november period set in the beginning of dry season so the probabilities that snakes will be much around this time around are very high.

What are the possible ways to prevent snakes entering in your water Closet

CLEAR SURROUNDING BUSHES & COVERING UP CREVICES

Especially green snakes types, bushes or grass can serves as an abode for some snakes to hide, snakes can hide inside wall holes, broken ceilings, uncut Bushes or grasses, however, cover up every holes in the house, clear up the bushes to the minimal level, Never leave a space under your frontage door that leads to outside, all loop holes or spaces must be closed firmly, with this measure, they won't have anywhere to enter or hide in your homes.

USING VINEGAR

Vinegar is effective at repelling snakes near bodies of water including swimming pools. Pour white vinegar around the perimeter of any body of water for a natural snake repellent.

USE A SNAKE REPELLANT SPRAY

Snake repellent sprays are affordable and are available around some of the shopping malls like Jumia, get one for yourself or your family, spray around the house, corners of the room and the surroundings.

AVOID RAT INFESTATIONS

Snakes sometimes doesn't necessarily comes into some homes if they don't see something they are chasing or to eat, home rats serves as preys to snakes, this increase their urge to hunt for these rats thereby using a corner of your homes as a place to hide to catch their preys.

HOME ROUTINE CLEARING

Always make it habitual of effectively cleaning and sanitisation when you are sweeping your compounds or rooms, sweep all corners that have food debris or remnants, raise up your rugs or carpet and make sure you sweep underneath and don't leave any dirt traces there.

USE GARLIC

Crumple garlic by making into powdery form, add little water, spray it or sprinkle it across the walls and conner of your rooms, Snakes hate the smell of garlics, it repels them excessively.

SCENT LEAVES

This one of the most commonest plant we can have around our homes, snake hate the odours of scent leaves and are very offensive to them, scent leaves are common plant in Nigeria you can get and plant at your backyard, it repels snakes faster.

CHECK TO COVER UP SOAK-AWAYS

If you are wandering how snakes get into your toilet, this one of the commonest way they can use to intrude, check where your septic tanks or soak- away is located, check for open holes, Snakes can crawl into the septic tanks through the open holes, patch up open holes or fill it with hard cements.

BE OBSERVANT AND VIGILANT

Never go to toilet without having a touch or lights on, before you squat on the water closet, wait for about 45 seconds before you put your buttocks on the WC, be silent, don't move your legs, if you are in a toilet without light, put off your touch for like 5 seconds, then immediately put it on back directly inside the center of the wc before you use the toilet, Never be in a haste to use the toilet, remember, November are snakes season, harmattan is around the corner and they looks for a warm place to dwell, don't be a victim of snake bites, be cautious!!

Incase you are accidentally bitten by snake, don't move, immediately call for help, stay at that spot or take a two steps away from the scene, the more you move, the faster the venom gets into the blood stream, get a rope and tie firmly just above the bitten spot, if you have bitter kola, grind or eat it to extract the liquid, bitter kola has been seen to neutralised snake venom which serves as first aid before you get to hospital.

Hope this helps..

HealthHow To Prevent Yourself From Scorpion Bite by Irelexicon(op): 5:20pm On Jun 12, 2019
Scorpions are crawling small animals that lives around our surroundings and bushes nearby, they are found around during the dry and rainy seasons but are more pronounced during the rainy season because they love hiding in wet or hidden places. There are about 1500 species of scorpions but about 30 species are more virulent and dangerous if bitten, according to research, scorpions bite are not that harmful to adults if prophylactic measures are put in place, but may be harmful to the children due to the neurotoxins they released. Everyone gets scared about scorpion bites and what they think next is death peradventure after being bitten.

Preventive measures to put in place to protect yourself from scorpions bite.

CLEAR THE SURROUNDING BUSHES

Make sure all the bushes around your area or environment are cleared properly, scorpions are one of the most small dangerous animals that can hide under anywhere suitable for them, they can be camouflaging most times and you won't know that they are even under that grass you thought you have cleared if not properly cleared, so when clearing your house bushes or grasses, clear them to the minimal level to avoid this deadly predators.

SWEEP THE SURROUNDING AREAS OFTEN

This is important to be sure you are free from any dangerous crawling insects, sweep thoroughly the corners of your rooms, veranda, any confined corners, rugs, carpets, and likes, most times scorpions likes hiding under/around the afore motioned areas.

BE VIGILANT & HOLD A TORCH OR LAMP WITH YOU

This is paramount especially at night, don't believe you see all at night, many people have been ignorantly bitten by scorpions and snakes at night or when they sleep at night, you need a torch or lamp to be beside you everytime you are indoor or outdoor when there is no electric power supply and if there is power supply, its advisable to use white lightning bulbs than the yellow ones due to its clarity.

USE CRAWLING INSECTS KILLING CHEMICALS

Use effective crawling inscects killing chemicals when you are outdoors, this might be offensive to scorpions and ward them off from your vicinity.

Unless spiritual attached, but with this aforementioned measures above, you should be free off of any dangerous crawling insects or animals.

HealthRe: Nigerian Invents A Water Device That Prevents Cholera And Typhoid Infections by Irelexicon(m): 11:44am On Sep 06, 2018
orbij:
Over a billion people globally lack access to clean, safe drinking water; a large percentage of that figure are located in developing countries. At any given time, half of the world’s hospital beds are occupied by patients suffering from diseases associated with lack of access to clean water; sadly 3.4 million people die each year from scarce and contaminated water sources.

A group of young Nigerian entrepreneurs, who received support from AlphaHUB have developed a Smart System that will detect water contaminants, purify the water and automatically dispense it via a smart card. 
 
AlphaHUB an Innovation centre, located in Kaduna State (Northern Nigeria) dedicated to drive research and development in Hardware and Embedded System Technology, has really kept to its vision and mandate; as few months from its inception they already achieving great strides.
 
The Founder of AlphaHUB.ng - Victor Jibro, was elated to see entrepreneurs use technology to solve a problem that for a long time has plagued communities all over the world. He was happy the Hub was part of  history in presenting Digitaps. 
 
DIGITAPS is an intelligent water filtration and management system that eliminates water borne diseases, thus providing clean water supply to individuals. This is possible by combining four elements essential to smart water management - Filtration, Dispenser,Smart cards and an eManagement System


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXR2RhZTc-A


The CTO of Digitaps, Mr Isaac Imoh said DIGITAP will be a leading piece of technology in the fight against poverty through water filtration and purification,as there are no examples of countries that have eliminated poverty without first solving their scarce and contaminated water issues.

Mr Isaac Imoh said, Digitaps is a Turnkey System that is portable and powered by Solar. The System takes in water from any source (borehole,river,stream) and using a ultra filtration technique it purifies  the water and makes  available for consumption, thereby eradicating common diseases like Cholera,diarrhea and lead poisoning 

The CTO concluded by saying "In most developing regions, there is not a lack of water, but a lack of access to clean water; by creating access to clean water to millions of people, Digitaps can enable prosperity to take hold GLOBALLY.

Thanks to science I don't need to copulate with only a tall or overweight woman to have all our kids at once. A beautiful set of quintuplets grin


7. Babies have been documented doing a number of things while inside the womb. From sucking their thumbs and holding hands, to masturbating and waving hello, you never know what you might see during an ultrasound!

This well explains the high sex drive in some of us.

Health30 Weird Mouthwatering Facts About Women Pregnancies You Won't Believe! by Irelexicon(op): 3:42pm On Sep 05, 2018
According to mom.me, these are the facts being gathered;
1. Once you are about four months pregnant, your baby begins to urinate inside of you. In fact, they pee up to one liter a day! If that doesn't gross you out, knowing that your little one drinks it surely will.

2. Most women experience swelling in their feet during pregnancy. Because of water weight and other extra fluid, your feet can grow up to one full shoe size! In fact, some women's feet stay that size after their baby is born.

3. Your uterus begins around the size of a small peach, then stretches to the size of a watermelon. For reference, that's about 500 times its original size! How incredible! (And a scary reminder for when it's time for the baby to come out!)

4. If you are tall or overweight, you have a greater chance of carrying multiples.

5. A baby has all of his or her fingerprints by 9-12 weeks in the womb!

6. At the end of your pregnancy, your placenta alone will produce the same amount of estrogen that a non-pregnant woman produces in 3 years!

7. Babies have been documented doing a number of things while inside the womb. From sucking their thumbs and holding hands, to masturbating and waving hello, you never know what you might see during an ultrasound!

8. The longest pregnancy on record was 375 days. In case math isn't your strong suit, that's longer than one calendar year!

9. Nine in 10 women experience a change in skin tone during pregnancy.

10. Pregnant women have an increased blood volume, so they experience bloody noses and bloody gums quite frequently.

11. Speaking of increased blood volume, did you know that your heart actually grows during pregnancy? It works harder and pumps more blood for that growing baby!

12. Babies cry in the womb. Because of all of the fluid, you can't hear them. But it's still kind of sad and scary.

13. Pregnancy hormones can do amazing things for your nails and hair. But after birth? You can expect your hair to fall out in alarming amounts.

14. Between 16 and 22 weeks, your doctor may be able to do an ultrasound to tell your baby's gender. Be mindful that these tests are only 70-95 percent accurate.

15. Some pregnant women lactate in late pregnancy at the sound of someone else's baby crying.

16. Pregnant women are more prone to broken bones because of a hormone called relaxin. The hormone allows your joints to soften so that your hips and pelvis can open up for birth.

17. Pregnant women do have a heightened sense of smell. The reason? It's meant to help them steer clear of foods they shouldn't eat because of their growing baby.

18. Three out of 4 women develop a linea nigra during pregnancy. The linea nigra (Latin for "black line"wink is a dark, vertical line that runs down the abdomen. Sometimes it goes away after birth. Sometimes it doesn't.

19. Dad gaining weight too? Sharing pregnancy symptoms with your baby daddy is a thing. Scientists have documented this happening all over the world!

20. The only natural induction method that is scientifically proven is nipple stimulation. (All that talk of pineapples and eggplant parmesan is crap!)

21. In utero, baby girls develop all of the reproductive eggs they will ever use. Baby boys don't develop sperm until puberty.

22. Pregnant women have less oxygen in their blood, which is what causes "pregnancy brain," or forgetfulness.

23. In utero, babies develop a waxy, cream cheese-like coating called vernix. Many babies are born with vernix residue.

24. Pregnant women have what's called a mucous plug — that is as disgusting as it sounds. It is at the opening of the cervix and serves to prevent bacteria from reaching the womb. It will pass as your body gets ready for labor.

25. Once pregnant, your body develops an organ called the placenta. Humans are the only mammals to not routinely ingest their placenta after birth. Fun fact: Placenta is Latin for "cake"!

26. One in 3 women give birth via Cesarean section. This number has tripled in the last 10 years!

27. It is true that women who suffer from heartburn during pregnancy are more likely to have babies born with lots of hair.

28. One in every 2000 babies is born with teeth. Most of the time, they have to be pulled shortly after birth.

29. Orgasms can induce contractions. If you are past your due date, it's a good excuse to get busy!

30. Babies in utero develop hair all over their bodies called lanugo. It looks like a fur coat! They usually shed this hair before they are born.

Even the BMLS holders are been oppressed by d doctors, not to talk of MCBites.
We Microbiologist have other options to chose from as a career if MLS or doctors are wagging their wings that that we are not reputable to them, then we can go for other beta option than medical, more or less, how much are they even pay MCB, they pay them less compare to Mls/MLT...

Health6 Cancerous Causing Foods That You Eat But Pose Threat To Your Health (must Read by Irelexicon(op): 12:16am On Aug 27, 2018
There are majority of food stuffs nowadays sold or being eaten without even knowing that they may develop a cancerous growth or tumors in you, you eats this foods almost daily but due to ignorance, you may not know they are detrimental to your health.

Cancers as it is, is one of the leading and recent causes of human death. There are various type of cancers but the ones we are familiar with that are dangerous are the cancer of the liver, breasts, lungs, kidneys, bladder and pancreas.

These are some of the picks of 6 cancerous foods you are probably familiar with but may affects your health.

1. *POPCORNS*

Popcorn can be consider an healthy snack eaten by everyone,especially by campus students, but the microwave used in popping it out is the problem. It contains a microwave bags which are lined with a chemical called PERFLUORO-OCTANOIC ACID (PFOA).

Many studies have suggested that consuming PFOA can cause cancers of the kidney, bladder, liver, pancreas, and testicles.

2 *SODA*

Sodas contains an artificial colorings and chemicals which maybe considered carcinogenic, such as derivative 4-methylimidazole (4-MI), and are known to increase cancer risk.

3. *CANNED FOODS/DRINKS*

The problem we may have with our canned foods is the storage. Almost all aluminum cans are considered to be lined with cancer causing BISPHENOL-A (BPA). Tomatoes and other foods with high acidity are especially dangerous to eat out of a can because the acid tends to leech BPA directly into the food at high levels. The same thing goes to canned drinks, such as Coca-Cola, bullets, even malts, these drinks contains a very strong preservative that may be considered to be cancerous especially after taking after many days post-production.

I will advice you to buy fresh or frozen products, unless the can is specifically labeled as BPA-free.

4. *POTATO CHIPS*

Potatoes are very high in fat and sodium contents, they also contain artificial flavors, preservatives, and food colors that may be detrimental to the body system.
