I would never use Sevin, and bt washes away too fast for me here. Thank goodness they hate our weather.

Sweetheart, I wonder if we are in two different war zones. In Georgia, it is a fully engaged, 24 hour a day, battle with the bugs. They are waiting tonight in battalions for me to set out the squash, and as soon as I do, they will launch a frontal attack. Will nylon stockings really work in this war zone?
