      From: Snag_one@msn.com               Squash bugs , the damn squash bugs are already hard at work(?)       breeding a new generation to decimate my squash plants . Well this year       I ain't havin' none of that . I have consulted with my garden center       horticulturist and gotten advice . I happen to have an OLD bottle of       liquid Sevin , from back in the day before they neutered it . Much as I       hate chemicals , I'm loosening my stand on this one . I've worked too       hard on this to see it go down the drain before the plants are even well       established . I'm going to have to be careful where and when I use this       stuff , it'll kill bees just as effectively as squash bugs . But I think       this is going to be my only recourse if I want to harvest that food for       us rather than fatten and increase the local bug community .       --       Snag        "They may take our lives but       they'll never take our freedom."        William Wallace              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
