But I just can't being myself to use all these chemicals that others are sloshing around without a second thought. Every gardening store I visit just has litres and litres of pesticides, weed killers etc, and people must be buying gajillions of litres of the stuff every week to have their perfect little lawns that look like playmobil gardens. I actually bought something called roundup but I just can't bring myself to use it. It's just sitting there in the shed, me silently hating it. How much to control the garden and how much to leave to nature is something constantly weighing on my conscience! In the meanwhile, ground elder is taking hold. Evil, evil ground elder. Any suggestions?Motherfunkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10809370449833738968noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954736734810179748.post-49027833431498920932011-07-08T14:14:43.314+01:002011-07-08T14:14:43.314+01:00I hear you.

One day (two summers ago) I was walking down the lane with my newborn, just-two year old, and just-four year old...the older two were pretending to be lions in the long grass when all of a sudden...wasps! My two year old got stung two or three times...once on the lip which swelled up to 4 times its usual size. Scary stuff. And this mama was hard pressed to control the urge to pesticide the crap outta that wasp nest. But instead, we just stay out of the long grass...The Knitty Gritty Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02890656094078973552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8954736734810179748.post-45508182735286103172011-07-08T01:05:12.086+01:002011-07-08T01:05:12.086+01:00Wow, four times in one session?
