| Not my hands...just an example! |
We have a fire ant nest beside the driveway and another on the back patio. Apparently you don't mess with fire ants. Their bites are very nasty indeed. We have asked the landlady what she wants to do about them...apparently people here regularly treat the ground around their property to keep them away. Meanwhile we are being very cautious!
I bought some daisies to brighten up the front porch but the tap water here is so soft and saline that you can't use it for watering plants. So I'm going to invest in a bucket and stick it under the overflowing gutters the next time we have a downpour. Then apparently I need to put some drops of cooking oil in the water and cover the bucket with a lid so it doesn't become a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
Life is so dangerous here!
