It's all-natural, made of the fossilized exoskeletons of ancient sea creatures, and is deadly to bugs. It slices them up, and they can't become immune to it. I use it sparingly in my chickens' feed to eliminate worms. To get rid of poultry mites, fleas, slugs, roaches, and ants, I sprinkle it around the chicken coop/yard, around my outdoor cats' food dishes, and anyplace in the yard where there's bug trouble. Check out organic animal feed supply websites for available sizes. Several years ago, I paid $70 (S&H included) for a 50-pound bag, but it lasts forever. I store it in a heavy-duty plastic Rubbermaid container with a sturdy lid.Miss Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13210249894351503887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461658247603905885.post-50750782588989150762011-07-30T23:09:08.571-06:002011-07-30T23:09:08.571-06:00"This game of couture chicken" describes..."This game of couture chicken" describes the case perfectly! I think I've already done the first steps several dozen times . . . and I've got a sewing machine now that's supposed to have a serger setting. So maybe the next step is learning how to use the bloody thing. And not pulling my frequent trick of experimenting on the garment pieces themselves.<br /><br />Thanks, Mom. Though will it work all right if I substitute Scotch for the vodka?St. Blogwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04173870976749288145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461658247603905885.post-72429376679135256732011-07-30T10:05:21.362-06:002011-07-30T10:05:21.362-06:00Thanks, Mom.

My house was built on an ant hill!! I won't use an exterminator because I have kittehs and am afraid if the smell of the chemical (or the chemical gets accidentally tracked inside the house) will harm the kittehs. (I'll have to remember to Ask Mom about ground hogs moving in and taking over.)Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11071236024242050143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3461658247603905885.post-83965778073976661052011-07-27T20:25:42.270-06:002011-07-27T20:25:42.270-06:00Kitteh: Lulz!
