Rainy Season Pests
With the start of the rainy season well under way I've seen and heard an increase of toads and frogs. They are a natural attraction to snakes. In the past few days we've seen a number of snakes around the garden.
The snakes we've seen so far seem to be young snakes. Older snakes don't return, probably remembering the welcome they receive.
I spray them with a mixture of watered down chlorine and they make a quick retreat to the open fields and standing water
Crawlers like ants, spiders and roaches are also on the move looking for dry homesteads. I spread talc such as baby powder around the house. Talc is also effective on bedbugs and fleas. Avoid inhaling the powder. Talc tends to harden with moisture (humidity), becoming less effective. Simply loosen the powder with a brush of brom.
Alternatively citronella oil is equally effective against most bugs
