Default Battle Against Pests Begins

I can not believe this. Here we are almost at the end of March...Expecting snow in a couple of days and I am seeing ants, spiders,bees, wasps and other pests out and about already!!!

It is seriously time to get ourselves prepared to battle against them already. Where I live just about everyone around me has pets. Mostly dogs, because of this it seems that the fleas are the worst to battle against.

What pests do you all battle the most in your areas? I know depending on the area and other factors the pests will differ.

This is one thing I hate to deal with in the warmer weather. I hate these pests. I don't like using harsh chemicals because they can make us and those around us sick. Which I don't want. So getting rid of them naturally can be a hassle but well worth it!!

I had my back door open for a while yesterday and next thing I knew I had three bees buzzing in my kitchen window! I couldn't believe it. I attacked them with the flyswatter before they could attack me!

Bees are a real pain in the you know what. I know they are necessary for
flowers but they should be taught not to sting us lol!

When you are working on the landscaping around you home you need to be very careful. The last thing you want to do is stir up a nest of bees. You will pay for it.

The best thing to do with any type of bee or wasp is to leave it and the nest alone. Thats not always possible though. Sometimes they build their homes way too close to our homes.

There are some great sprays on the market that are eco-friendly and will help you get rid of them.

I found a whole page of great info and a video that will help you on your bee eradication!

If you ask me bees are the worst. Though I only say this because I am allergic to bee stings. So I seriously try to be careful when I am outside so that I don't get stung.

The last thing I want to do on any nice day ( or any for that matter) is end up in the hospital not being able to breath and so on.

I just wish that we didn't have to deal with all of these pests every single year!! That is always a pain in the rear!

I love being outside in the nice weather enjoying warm breezes, sunshine and listening to the birds singing in the trees. Though at time those bees, wasps and other pests can force be back inside where I don't want to be.
