Re: Re: Immunox
Auralie & Pam,
Well it sounds like the milk might do the trick. The real trick, regardless
of what we use, is making sure each person applies it. Hmmm....
We have 7 people who tend this nursery and everyone takes responsibility a
week (starting Sunday) at a time for weeding, watering and maintaining.
It's sort of up to that person when they come, how often, and what they get
done. I'd be concerned that Week 6 it would get sprayed on Friday, and week
7 on Sunday (2 days later), and week 8 on Saturday (13 days later). And
that's if they remember to do it.
Kitty
