That's for sure. Although, my only real insect problems are spiders and bees. Everything else is killed off by the bazillion birds around here. We live on the edge of a marsh...but mosquitos are rare. The pheasants and the guineas comb the property for fleas and ticks. We don't even see grasshopper very much.
Course...there's the flies. That has something to do with the abundance of horsey poop around here.

John I have those bees. What brand/kind of spray do you use?

Hi Maylon
I use Spectracide Triazicide. http://www.amazon.com/SPECTRACIDE-TR.../dp/B0037ASSNQ
Costs about $10 at walmart and it's a concentrate...something like 2 tablespoons per gallon. But I make mine at about a 1/2 a cup per gallon and get much longer term results. It says that it is a 90 day solution, but I've found that it keeps killing for 6-9 months.
Spray it on all surfaces and if you see any bee holes...spray it those too. I bought one of those 2 gallon hand pump up garden sprayers. Works great and the stream will reach high places.

Thanks John, I'll give it a try.

The reason I didn't see John's answer to my post, and the cause of the buzzing, is that this forum program keeps hiding some of the posts.
"More posts below this level" ... what's up with that? Why not show all the posts when you open a page?
grit yer teeth.... count to ten..... John's word: Sheesh!

Allen...perhaps you are in "Threaded Mode" instead of "Linear Mode" on the forum. This is set in the User CP
Click on User CP in the upper left of this screen
Look at the menus on the left
Go down to Settings & Options
Click on Edit Options
Down near the bottom of the page you will see Thread Display Options
Thats where you set your Thread Display Mode. Linear is really the best one, because people don't really post on SMC in such a way that the Threaded Mode would work correctly.

John, thanks for clearing that up for me. I did as you suggested, so maybe it'll keep my blood pressure down... (I really don't have BP problems... Computers just tick me off, naturally.)
