The start of the new year inspires many to set goals and make resolutions. What do we know about human behavior that can help us turn our goals into achievements? What are some of the tools available to us? How can we solicit a community of friends for support to help us be accountable for our goals and to cheer us on when we want to give up or to remind us that we can start anew, no matter where we are in the new year? We invite you to share your resolutions and what's helped you stick with them.

If insects are causing problems at your house, we may be able to help. Our guest will be Phil Nixon, extension entomologist at the University of Illinois. He’s been with us many times before to take questions on a wide range of pests, everything from ants and roaches to silverfish and centipedes: the common pests that cause problems in our homes and gardens. Sometimes the key is just trying to get along, but if it’s a bug you just can’t live with, Phil can tell you how to make it go away.
