Re: Patch Wars!
You got it, Calif. is sure hot today.
Will I must say that the squash bugs are also out in force in Calif.
I went out and watered that morning at 6:30 am and I picked 49 squash bugs,
I haven't seen them so bad as they are this year, nothing seem to stop them
(only picking them and doing away with them).
I guess that is the only answer.
Keep cool out there and keep your pets indoors today.
