Do you have a fire ant problem on or near your patio…no problem. Just take a flower pot and flip it upside down on top of their home. Then you boil some water and pit it down the drain hole of the flowerpot…it is almost like you are burning down their home and they will not be back to bother you. This is a problem that you really do not want to encounter…believe me!!! They are really nasty to have to deal with and there is usually not just one or two – there are usually hundreds…yuck!!

i have a major ladybug problem still. I thought that after the first frost they would be gone…but they keep on coming back! I do not mine 1 or 2 but I have like 30 in my porch now…right now. And it is rather freaky if you ask me. And they all huddle in the corner at night to go to sleep or something. I have been catching them and throwing them out but it is not helping. However, if they are the orange beetles…I have the vacuum right here to just suck them up. The orange ones that look like lady bugs are not. Filed under: Insect and Bugs Comments: None |

I really do not mind ladybug’s but when they get in my house by the 100′s it is a real problem. And right now I have a real problem. There were all in my front porch and this morning they were not to be found. But if you look in the corners they are all huddled together. And some of these are the orange beetles which are not even ladybugs … so I sucked them up in the vacumn canister and emptied them outside. Some of them actually few away when I emptied it too!

If you have never had cock roaches in your house then consider yourself very lucky. Here is something you can do if you have a roach infestation…first do not panic although that is really hard to do if you ask me. Put sugar and baking powder all over the infested areas. The sugar is meant to attract the roaches and the baking powder will kill them and always leave out a fresh mixture to prevent theme from coming back…or you can call the exterminator.
