no kidding. the aphids are back in force this summer. I’ve tried good bugs…now I’m ready for more severe methods.

this story rawks. I don’t have chickens, but I could be a hell of a lot more generous with the DE. (actually, I think that’s why the ants STILL haven’t returned to the kitchen: DE carpet-bombing.)
