Comments (108)Oh, boy do I know where you are coming from, Scotland1! I live on the coast of North Carolina, and they are bad here too. I think what we have are called American roaches...not quite as big as palmettos, but close. The only thing good about our cold winters (short lived) is that they arent around very much. I get my house exterminated 4 times a year, HOWEVER, this past fall season, I bought Raid Bug Barrier. It said it "keeps bugs out", so I gave it a try. I spray (and it has an option to spray a pretty far distance with a steady stream...so if a bug is crawling up the wall around the corners at the ceiling. As they do here!) Anyway, I spray outside on my patio, around doors and windows, and even on the house. I spray inside just a little where I suspect they might enter. Ever since I started this, I have seen only two bugs, and they were about to kill over. I will never be out of this stuff....See MoreDo you have stink bugs too?
Comments (30)I have started several seeds also. I listed them on the if I moved to Georgia post. Some tender veggies, I started too early. The seeds germinated in a day, instead of several days. I started some flower seeds also. I listed them all on the if I moved to Georgia thread. Sorry to hear about your shoulder. I don't want to get nosy, but I will add that they should have shown you how to do some exercises to gradually get you back into shape, as far as your shoulder. Well, in other words Therapy. If you couldn't afford the therapy after surgery, they should have shown you how to get your muscles back into good condition. My mom had surgery, she tore her rotor cuff. After wards she had therapy for 6-8 weeks. If you couldn't afford it, they should have tried to tell you a few exercises, or something to help you get your muscles ready to, well for lack of a better word, to work as they once did....See MorePot Stash
Comments (20)Thanx folks, I felt so much better when I saw Nancy's pot-stash.... now I know I am not the only one with a stack of messy pots, I save every last one of them also I keep those stupid trays from HD and Lowe's that 18 small plants come in... by the way they are handy for setting on weeds to kill the weed, my garden has those trays all over the place.... when my son comes over he gets this 'look' and mutters something abt. 'cleaning up the yard' I just pretend I don't hear him and go inside..... it's too hot out there anyway...... sally...See Morestuartwanda
