Ruby--

I will be more vigilant come spring/summer.
Honestly--last season I saw a few on my Dtura blooms. That's it!

now--these Daturas are in my side bed right below my BR windows--a ways up.
They are in a shabby shape...rattle and all that.. Need caulking on the outside.
Too high for me to get to. Don't know that I would even try if they were lower.

Talking of windows--I hardly ever open mine as I have central a/c.
If it is a cool day--I may open to the screen in the storm door--
and maybe my one BR window. Can't really get to any others...

As to John's question: Do I freak out when I see a bug? NO! Not the "freak out" type...
May have a soapy water container nearby as I work in the yard this season....

Just HAVE TO clean out my cluttered shed this year. Who knows what i will find there?
