Well Guys, been awhile since I have been on JC...been busy with some family issues and some Texas Pests...Big Time...I seem to have both situations under control, so I hope to be more active on JC...!!:)
Wanted to show you all the pests I have been dealing with...almost turned into a nightmare !!..:beat-up:....The photo that I am including is just a small portion of the pests I caught in my home, using both glue traps and commercial insecticides...I used a online company called Do It Yourself Pest Control..and it sure saved me some money !!...
I was told this has been a really a bad year for Scorpions, in Texas !!..

Glad to be back..!!:)

MaryLou..

Freak'in scorpions . Hate those buggers . The only good one is a dead one . I remember having to get up in the morning and check all your clothes and shoes for the darn things . Had to be extra careful puttering around the shop too . Dive bombed by hornets and stung in the foot by scorpions is not my idea of a pleasant evening at home .

That is just a portion of what I killed or caught with glue traps...I hope PETA doesn't get after me for unnecessary cruelty !!..:P
