    Forum Post Count - stopped counting

    So, I've been at 142 posts for quite a while...I've been very actively posting this past week. Guess I'll be staying in "Out of the Brooder" mode, if that matters...

    My "Pest Control Squad"

    I love to garden. Squash (yellow and zucchini), arugula, okra, and radishes grow great out here (near Dallas, TX)! But the green beans, tomatoes, broccoli, califlower, peaches, etc. are a food buffet for grasshoppers. The population of grasshoppers seems to go on forever, especially in the hot...
