Months ago we bought some milky spore to put on the yard to kill Japanese beetle larvae dead. We’ve been putting down spore for about a year now and apparently you have to do it for something like 2 times a year for 2 years and then you won’t have a Japanese beetle problem. Or maybe it’s 4 times a year for 2 years or maybe it’s all the time and I really should just try to remember why I came here to post in the first place.
For whatever reason we have been buying the milky spore in a powder format and so we can’t put it in the spreader thing so that means I’ve been walking around with a tablespoon in my hand tossing spore in regularly-spaced intervals. The last time I did it, I said that’s it. No more. Someone else’s job.
You can see where this is going, can’t you? The milky spore has been sitting in the garage for months. I could tell it was going to rain this afternoon so I quickly paced the yard spreading milky spore and then I sent the better-half an email asking for some fanfare when he got home. He just got home and I got three cheers.
