I'm going to try that this year. Beats hand picking them all off and trying to feed them out of a bucket to the chickens. A couple of my barred rock girls are pretty attentive to things, maybe I can get them on board with this bug picking thing. I'd try my turkeys but I'm afraid they would damage the stem picking off the bugs. They're a little more forceful.
Hopefully my computer is going to play for awhile now. It kept shutting down on me in the middle of everything. We thought we might have a virus but then it was telling us it couldn't connect to something in the windows realm so we tried to check that and then it even was shutting down in safe mode which made us think it was not an operating system problem. Since we weren't having problems before our son came home for spring break and plugged in his Wii U and computer and things to the same outlet, we had him unplug everything. Then the computer worked better however, it still shut down after a little while. So then we looked up stuff on the internet and decided maybe it was overheating. It was suggested to clean out the fan and the cooling fins so we started blowing through the fins and OMG. I could have planted half a garden bed in all the dust that came out. The computer now seems to be working much better.
