Picket Fence Weblog

I’m not a big fan of bugs. I know that there are a lot of what they call “beneficial bugs” out there that eat other bugs, help plants and flowers, etc. That is all well and good, but unless bugs are paying my mortgage, I want them out of my house. I especially hate bugs in the sink or bathtub. This morning there was a spider in my tub. I know it is irrational to say it, but he (or she) looked mean and I wanted him (or her) gone! I don’t like to step on or squish bugs though. Instead, I use the Bug Buster. It’s a battery operated wand that traps bugs so you can release them outside. The bugs try to get away at first, but the air pressure sucks them inside. Just don’t throw the wand on your deck in a panic like I did one time. You need to gently remove the cap and tap it on the ground so they can go their merry way. If you want to deter bugs from taking up residence in the first place, I also recommend Spider Not and Silverfish Packs.

Until next time… Ann ♥
