Hi

# co-friendly: HDPE is often produced using recycled plastics. The same material used to produce milk jugs, laundry detergent bottles and margarine tubs are repurposed into HDPE lumber. Additionally, resin furniture is an eco-friendly alternative to wood. Although wood is a renewable resource, replanting efforts cannot keep up with global deforestation.
# Attractiveness: Often made to resemble wood, resin can be manipulated to emulate wood grain, as well feature any color of the rainbow. Matching a patio set to your deck and color scheme is easier than ever. Choose from natural earth tones to wild pinks and yellows for the more adventurous.
# Portability: Resin is lightweight enough (usually 40-50 lbs per chair) for easy moving and storage.
# Low Maintenance: Because of its resistance to weather and UV damage, resin is the ultimate outdoor accessory. It’s even resistant to damage from chlorine and saltwater so bring it

Thanks

Hi

I prefer the natural methods as I have pets - and chemicals are not good for any of us!!!Ticks hate basil; you can create a non-toxic spray: Get a grown basil plant; crush it; put into 2 quarts of water and soak it for 2 hrs; strain it and put in spray bottle; spray everywhere you think they might be - its harmless to us and pets, but repels ticks.
