AUNTS!!

[Guest guest]

My exterminator (who used less toxic chemicals) just sent

certified mail that he dropped me. Now the aunts read the notice

and all came in..... as I type on my computer I get 2 or 3 bites

each time! It has rained about 3 to 6 inches daily for six weeks

and we are having floods. Not me I made sure I bot on 'hight

ground for Florida'.

 

I have no chemicals to use inside except vinegar and I sprayed

them with that a couple of times. My little mini pin (dog) was

great! She would eat them including the BIG red carpenter aunts

with BIG bites. A sort of aunt-eating house pet but lost her.

Maybe I'll adopt an aunt eater!!! Better yet, I need to ask you all

what to do!!

 

I do know that the place to start is outside. I have some poison

.... sort of a meal to sprinkle outside. I bought it because they

have established homes in my tropical plants from time to time

and I had to get rid of them to load/display/sell my plant

business plants. I hate to use it, but I may be forced to sprinkle

this poison around the foundation of the house.

 

Lets see, boric acid is for roaches and humm my books are all

in transient from one book case to boxes to another book case,

Tansy pops into my mind, not sure... sooo will someone help me

with a non poison solution for an organic gardener!! And my

friend in CA in the desert just sent an SOS - AUNTS there, too!

It's ANTS, for cryin' out loud.

I used Boric acid inside and outside the perimeter of my home to

control ants and had great success with it. I don't think its

effectiveness is limited to roaches. In fact, I hear roaches can

survive a nuclear blast, so if boric acid works on roaches, i imagine

it will help control any other type of bug!! Good luck!
