| Last night, just before I went in for the night I checked my hollyhock. And yikes, a Japanese beetle was on it. I drowned all three of the evil critters I found and, now, for the next month, I've going into beetle death mode. Each morning, first thing I do is head out to the garden and drown any I find. Same routine in the early evening and last thing before I pack up for the night. I was so hoping the winter had disrupted them for this season. |

| Haha. Definitely different strokes. I work from home in the morning so I am logged on by 7:30 am (I'm in technology). Before I do that, I like to take a quick garden stroll, get my breakfast, take my morning meds (ah old age, such a blast) and murder a few bugs. I find early morning violence is quite cathartic. |
