Wildlife Conflicts: Fences are the best way to prevent deer and other foraging animals from damaging gardens and plants, but it can be expensive, and difficult or time-consuming to install. There are other wildlife deterrents, but they’re generally less successful. So be prepared to share: The wildlife returns can be valuable, too. By Dean Fosdick. UPCOMING Tuesday, 600 words, photos.

HOMES

Wanderlust Decor: Actual travel might be on hold, but you can soothe that wanderlust with a few home décor change-ups or additions. By Kim Cook. UPCOMING Tuesday, 700 words, photos.

SPECIAL EDITIONS ADVISORY

Editors: Because of rapidly changing developments caused by the coronavirus, The AP will not be moving any more Special Editions in 2020. We plan to continue spot and feature coverage of these subjects — weddings, pursuits, school, homes, pets and holidays — on the regular AP Lifestyles and main news wires. If you have questions, please contact Julia Rubin at jrubin@ap.org or Barry Bedlan at bbedlan@ap.org.

LIFESTYLES ADVISORY

Editors: During this uncertain time, we are pleased to provide you with more timely content for Lifestyles that speaks to how we are living, adapting and coping during the coronavirus pandemic. As we increase that coverage, we have altered our standard weekly offerings for the time being. Our gardening column will move bimonthly. Food stories will be guaranteed at least twice a month. Home stories will be guaranteed at least twice a month. For further questions, please contact Julia Rubin at jrubin@ap.org or Barry Bedlan at bbedlan@ap.org.
