donna reports eh icu is spotless so whoever cleaned it up up yesterday should get a gold star on their forehead !!!

yesterday may be teh last day pre-bug of teh season.. most people talke about seeing the first robin of the season.. well.... i saw my first wasp---and all those birds i worried about are back and building nests in all the bird houses around
***
wasps--- in teh ground-- probaBLY HAVE A special name... but around here... if youo see a wasp it will really help if you stop for 10 seconds and see if you see a second wasp in the same area-- if you do .. make note of where... and i wlll go on wasp watch-- or get someone who says "how can i help with my sore finger?" or whatever.... you can watch for and locate that 1/4 inch hole in the ground where you can see them coming and going- which indicates a huge nest underground which must be eradicated-
thehre are many different approaches i have had-- setting a big rock squarely on to p has always seemed simple-- or filling it with commercial squirted foam....blowing it up is much more exciting- and keroscene does not blow but it interesting.
whatever you do... you will still need to address teh returning family mjembers-- we use a butterfly net to scoop them as they return and lionger where the entry hole used to be. tehn step on the net.
teh big rock and butterfly net are teh safesgt-- but i should address teh chemical solution...squirted foam is probably the next safest-
EXPERIENCE COMES FROM BAD EXPERIENCES...
DO NOT USE GASOLINE.-- BETWEEN GETTING A TABLESPOON OF GAS IN THE HOLE,GETTING TEH REST OF TEH GAS OUT OF THE WAY AND TOSSING A MATCH -IT IS A COMBINATION FOR DISASTER...
FYI--- THAT BIG EXPLOSION IN THE MOVIE "BLOWN AWAY" OF TEH SHIP IN BOSTON HARBOR-- HUGGE EXPLOSION,, I AM TOLD BY THE CREW... WAS DONE WITH ONLY 3 GALLONS OF GAS.--- AND 3 WEEKS L;ATER TEH FILM "PEOPLE" -- I SAW-- STILL WRITING CHECKS AT THE LOCAL MCDONALDS....FOR BLOWN OUT WINDOWS AND CRACKED CHIMNEYS ALL OVER REVERE.
SO DON'T TRY THAT...
THE OTEHR FYI... I AM NO EXPERT, BUT KEROSCENE WILL BLOW IF SPRAYED-- A PUDDLE OF KERO WILL BURN VERY POLITELY, BUT IF YOU SPRAY-- OR TOSS IT INTO LITTLE DROPLETS, IT TOO WILL BLOW AND IT WILL NOT SAY "MAY I?"
THE DIFFRERENCE BETWEEN KERO AND DIESAL IS AN ARGUEMENT FOR TEH EXPERTS... IT HAS TO DO WITH DYING ONE SO FOR TAX PURPOSES --- IT CAN OR CAN NOT BE USED ON OVER TEH ROAD VEHICLES..
SDP OWNS MANY GALLONS OF KERO IN THE BIG OIL TANKS IN TEH 4 BUILDINGS WHERE WE USED IT FOR HEAT- WHEN WE SWITHCHED TO TEHSE MITSUBUSHI HEATERS TEHY WERE NOT EMPTY...
NOW WHY I AM AFRAID TO USE IT ION THE KABOTA TRACTOR- WHICH IS DIESAL- I DO NOT KNOW. NO ONE Hs come up with what i consider a reason not influenced by taxation
ok cp's have at that a one. tehre must be some chemist type who really knows
