I never knew they nested in groups. And I never met a mean, nasty bumble bee before. I am over 60. I have a website for bumble bees in my other...
This past month I have been attacked twice by vicious bumble bees. The first time they stung me on my upper lip. I am very allergic to bee stings,...
I love the smell of peppermint! It smells lovely to me. But getting hold of anything more than small amounts, is rather difficult and pricey...
thanks for the ideas. Maybe I can try the peppermint oil on the bird houses I have left. I hate to burn the one, it is a little wooden...
Hmm. I can do that in the bluebird house, but may have to burn or take apart the others and remake them? I had suggested to my friend to soak...
Last year, and this year I have been having problems with bees (bumble types), wasps and hornets invading my birdhouses. I have cleaned them out,...
It is my SON who is doing all the work. DH is deceased. But I do appreciate all of his hard work. He even made a sprinkler for the raised bed....

my new great grandson arrived last week. Mother and baby fine, Daddy is tired out and napping... [in a different picture anyway] I don't know...

You all have been as busy as the bees on my place! The bees have done a lot of propagating... My old fashioned rose of Sharon bushes have made...
If it was darker in color, I would guess a Cherokee purple, but it is likely some other variety. I had a freebie that was a cherry tomato this...
The absolute worst tool is the "Garden Weasel". It is flimsy and useless in the hard rocky clay soil we have here. I had computer probs last...
Definitely the garden weasel. It fell apart quickly. Any tool that won't hold up to Missouri's heavy clay and rocks or tree roots is junk.
I have a combination medium sized hoe on one side, and a fork thing on the other side. I have no idea what the tool is called, but it is very...
guess I will have to think of better spot for it.
thanks Evil Roy for the tips. I did not see your reply in time to use them though. I will try to keep them in mind if it happens again. What on...
Does anyone know if my horse will bother it? She does reach through the fence to get other things she likes. This is the best spot to plant it if...
