@Tippilou , you are the quietest person I know.

LoL!!! You should hear me at work! I'm an underwriter for mortgage loans and I sure have a lot to say about them! No one listens to my ramblings at the office. I come here to read and simmer down!

oh my gosh, I hope I am on to something here. vinegar, We all know what it was used for a few years ago.. My mother used it. she had 6 girls . Drs. (last i checked) were up in the air about it killing male sperm.

I have great respect for what you do. It confuses me . a lot of people said I should of refinanced my home for a lower rate and even got the paper work. I took a look at it all and tossed it ! hahaa

Hi everyone

Lots of catching up to do here!! Didn't get chance to post much yesterday I have been tackling a mite problem in my little chicken jail coop here

I gave it a good do yesterday as I saw a few. Spraying the mite kill on brought them out. Today was just even worse, I resorted to taking it apart and the horrid horid little things were hiding in between the joints!! I'm hoping this time they are pretty much gone will be spraying again tomorrow to make sure. It's really dissapointing as I'm a regular cleaner sprayer and DE earth person but I guess you can't get everywhere that they hide. I hate the things I really do, have been itching like I don't what untill I got in the shower and what washed out of my hair there is no wonder!! Clothes straight in to be washed too.

I really feel for you. I battled them earlier this year. Hate those little devils.

I finally resorted to flea spray intended for floors and pet bedding. It has a residual effect and kills the stragglers. Sprayed it in all the nooks and crannies, but not anywhere the chickens would walk or perch. It was the only thing that finally got rid of them all for me.

Best Answer: Me personally I would take a different approach to the cricket. I do consider them worthy of living in my home not in my bed or in my kitchen but I like the idea of saving the creature with a little folklore with it. With the economy as it is today, maybe you could use some luck like the rest of the country.
GOOD LUCK!

Crickets are said to foretell good luck. Their songs are said to bring blessings to all that are lucky enough to hear them. In many parts of the world, a cricket found in the house will be treated with respect. Often, they are placed in small cages made especially for them, given food and water, and hopefully able to live a long life, as the longer they live, the more good luck they bring. Others say to leave them as they are, and if they stay, it means large amounts of money will come to the owners of the dwelling.

Genesis 1:26
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them ***have dominion*** over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over ***every creeping thing that creeps** on the earth.**

All that is just to make you feel better while the constantly chirping cricket slowly drives you insane all night long.

Thank you . You are off work now . Fun time !

I probably have one of the lowest house payments around. $340. with 6.25 % and 20 more yrs. I am sure i qualify for lower /no interest and husband wants to take a loan for a new van but i am not so sure I want to mess with it. credit is horrid now. Used to be great. Its over half paid off any way.

you know, I dont think the bible says and all the creeping things that creep. It does the rest of that though.

I'm the kind that carefully puts spiders outside. I think the creeping things should be included, everything has it's place. Except mosquitoes. You think the world would fall apart if they just suddenly disappeared?

 

[Granny Hatchet]
