I need this in my life.
where'd everyone go?
Examining my wooly aphids infestation. They keep reappearing on my bay plant and my curry leaf plant. I don't think they are a problem for my other areas. But they are persistent.
New laptop exciting! Are you Apple or windows?
No worry about them finding their way into your tents?

Hot pepper,the hottest you got,preferable habaneros. Chop and boil for five minutes,cook and put in spray bottle with drip of dish soap, and if have aloe to use for solution to stick to em. Might not need if don't.
I went bug hunting with a q tip and some ISO.
Also learned they are more of a problem on woody plants like fruit trees.

YASH!! Did the same with them spider mites. Hit the plants with a mist to stun the bugs a bit - then look at the leaves under the magnifier and knock 'em off with the Q-Tip.

Windows. Although I just bought this laptop 15 months ago. So not really excited about it. All my files are backed up as always so not really a big deal other than having to go to town. Lovey and I now use laptops with docking stations so not much will change on our desk space. No more large desktop boxes and not changing out hardware frequently to keep up with gaming capabilities since our children have left home years ago. The cost to replace parts on the one I have is not worth it so off I go in search. Don’t call it shopping!
You were super persistent and won. Most would have given up.

That is a very short lifespan. Motherboard FUBAR? Hard drive?
I think that's a way tougher opponent. These don't seems as profligate if my memory serves. Spider mites are the goddam Borg.

Yup. I misted and Q-Tipped those cuts - hourly - for something like 6 days before I didn't see anymore of those medium brown little fucks with the dark spotted torsos. And they will hide their hairy little asses in dark of the junction of the stems and main stalk which is why you keep dousing them. Brings them out of their hiding spots
And I don't really wanna know what THEY do in the shadows.
Mealy bugs.

We get those fuzzy ones on our ornamental crab apple tree every year. They get sprayed every year multiple times and just take over by end of summer, leaves start falling off.I think that's a way tougher opponent. These don't seems as profligate if my memory serves.
