I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels bad about mass killing of bugs.
We had an ant colony by the steps to our back door. When they started coming into the house I went outside to see where there entry was and found hundreds swarming around the steps getting ready to make their entry. A quick spray of about 5 seconds took care of them, but they are social "animals" and I really felt bad to have wiped out the whole colony. the black rose wrote: P When we were living in WV, we had honey bees in the wall -- youngest DS took 6 stings when they got into the house but luckily didn't become allergic -- and another time we had yellow jackets -- I took a full hit in the top of my left foot YOW. We couldn't call fast enough to get rid of the yellow jackets, but it just killed us to have to exterminate the bees. We tried to capture the colony but failed. This was in the middle of that mite plague that was making a big dent in the honey bee population and this was a healthy colony. It was such a shame. |

I just checked on my iPod -- the only Homer & Jethro song MSM had was "I'm
