The beer traps really good if you husband will spare you a beer for your garden Make sure that the beer is around 5 inches deep and 1 inch below the top of the trap so that when the stupid slugs reach up to get out they fall in. Filed under: Flowers andInsect and Bugs andLawn Care Comments: None |
You just have to make sure that you design it correctly. My first try…I attracted slugs but I didn’t trap them! AH!!|

If you are having a problem with your fungal sport plant disease such as powdery mildew – try mixing some baking soda with water and spraying it on the leaf surface…this ways it makes the fungal sports unable to actually infect the plant…therefor you don’t have the plant disease. Not to mention this is a lot healthier for the environment and a lot cheaper than all the other products that sometimes really don’t work! 1 tablespoon of baking soda , 1 teaspoon of dish soap, 1 teaspoon of vegetable oil and 1 gallon of water. Make sure you test this on a small area – you don’t want to burn the plant if it is a sensitive plant! Filed under: Flowers andGardening Tips andLawn Care Comments: None |

I am always looking for great landscaping companys and sites. And sometimes by just going to great online galleries and viewing the photos of different landscapes it can inspire you enough to do something to your own yard. And the site All States Landscaping is great because they have great tools you can use where you can actually pick rocks and see what they would look like. Sometimes it is hard to just visualize what something will look like which is why the internet is just so cool because it can do so many things. And this site has ideas and resources for Utah Landscaping as well as Utah Snow Plowing and Utah Retaining Walls to name a few. Personally, I nbeed a retaining wall because my land is just so weird that when it rains I actually lose land because it goes down hill on a ledge. And if you are in an area that requires snow plowing then this is a service that is well worth it. Once you have been “spoiled” by the luxuries of not having to go out and shovel the feet of snow out of your driveway you will never ever go back that is for sure Filed under: Lawn Care Comments: None |
