Two Old Goats, New Formula

  • , by Trudy Chuoke Trudy Chuoke

Do you suffer from arthritis pain? Or maybe muscle pain from overdoing it in the gym or working in the yard. Everything is all ok until...you come in drink some iced tea and sit down to relax in front of the TV. Then when you get up to get something from the fridge, your body reacts, and you start to ache. Your back hurts, your hip is sore and you're generally feeling your age. Let me tell you about my mom, she is generally very active but once in a while her back will bother her. She always has used Two Old Goats for her knee but for her back she has started using the new Two Old Goats Arthritis Formula. Two Old Goats Arthritis Formula is a unique blend of essential oils consisting of lavender, chamomile, rosemary, eucalyptus, peppermint, and birch bark all enriched with natural menthol for even more pain relief for muscles and joints.

I have an employee that hurt a knee one year at work. She was out for a while and has completely recovered. But when the weather changes it can really make that knee act up. Well, she uses Two Old Goats Arthritis Formula also. She massages it into the knee and in a few minutes, she is up and out on the floor again. And the nice part, you can use it as much as you like. If you start to feel stiff, just apply another coat. And they have another new product.

Two Old Goats makes a bath crystal. It has the same essential oils and will calm an overworked body by providing relaxing relief. Just 2 scoops in a warm bath and relax. It’s on the website.

Now to the email….

Question: I have a grandson that I cart around from school to activities all year long. He brings his juice boxes and sips while I drive. Well, the other day while taking him out of the car seat, I noticed that the seat belt has mildew stains and looks bad. Is there anything I can clean this seat belt with that won’t discolor the fabric?

Answer: There is a good cleaner called Moldex. It is a bleach free formula so it will not change the color of the material. Since there is no bleach, there is no smell. Spray the stain and let it work for about 3 to 5 minutes. Scrub with a soft brush and blot with a rag. Then spray with clear water and blot dry. Let it dry and repeat if necessary. Great Question!

Question: We have a family plot, and we all take turns taking care of the markers. When I went out recently with all the rain those markers just looked awful. They have mildew stains all over them. They are granite and I am wondering what I clean with that will not damage the granite.

Answer: Use 30 Seconds Outdoor Cleaner. It’s safe and works quickly. Just spray on the marker, let it work and then rinse with clear water. There is no need to scrub.

Question: I just found out that I have grubs in my front yard. It just looked like a gray spot in the yard but when my neighbor came over and he reached down and pulled up my grass and it came up by the roots. I have noticed that I have had skunks in the yard and my neighbor said they are looking for grubs. Well evidently, they found them. And I know this is not what you usually write about ...but do you have an answer?

Answer: I do, because this happened to me not just once, but twice. August and September is grub season, so if you're reading this article it’s time treat your yard for grubs. I like to use Triazicide or Grubex both will kill over 250 different types of bugs, including grubs. Grubs do so much damage by chewing the roots of your grass and leaving dead spots in the yard. Grubs and Fungus can look very similar, however if it’s grubs, the grass will come up in your hands easily. I am treating the yard on my next day off. I like to use the granular and then water it in. But there is a hose-end that you might like also.
