spray crevice filling foam insulation into any open cracks and spaces that lead into your home from another (floors, ceilings, doorways). also a bead of silicone around all the joints inside cabinets and drawers in the kitchen and bath. it helps to keep them out of these spaces or contain small infestations within them. do not keep or store boxes and shopping bags if you can help it, if you must then keep them in sealed airtight plastic containers.

i'd just open the mat in the same sized frame around what i'd like to show. no need to cut the watercolor and you will have a more interesting piece because of the off center matting
