    Flies around my quail hutch.

    Are there any concerns about chickens eating flies that have ingested Quickstrike?

    What's the temperature where you are???

    {offers you a strawberry lemonade popsicle} The dewpoint is -8° right now. I didn't even know that was a thing. I've been in the dripping wet heat of the south, not in Florida, but in Georgia, Alabama, etc. That is far easier to deal with, at least for me. Air conditioning is a real blessing...

    Two questions about using predator urine to deter rodents

    No food is stored outdoors, we keep it in the house. The coop feeders are removed at dusk and also brought indoors. Those are on concrete so it's easy to sweep up any spilled food. The extant rodent populations established themselves long before we got here, when the house sat empty for a few...

    Has anyone successfully used baking soda to reduce or eliminate a rodent infestation?

    Unfortunately we're in the desert where they have natural food sources. Two large squirrel populations established themselves in the yard when the house was uninhabited for several years. There was no chicken feed or any other human food source and they thrived. We can't use poison. I think the...

    What's the temperature where you are???

    We use umbrellas for shade, too! Walking shade. Sometimes called parasols. It must look so odd to outsiders to see a bunch of people walking around with open umbrellas when there's not a cloud in the sky, lol.

    What made you happy today?

    All these comments about food and I came here to say what made me happy today is being in the middle of a 36 hour water-only fast. 😳 😄

    Two questions about using predator urine to deter rodents

    Pee goals... this is my life now. Coyotes eat squirrels and other rodents, their urine is supposed to be a signal to move on because a predator is in the area.

    Has anyone successfully used baking soda to reduce or eliminate a rodent infestation?

    I keep reading that baking soda will kill squirrels and other rodents, mixed with equal parts of cornmeal as an attractant. Has anyone here had success doing this? It seems too easy to be true.
