Shopping, Meds, and Bait

We usually shop Friday morning at eight.  This morning we went at nine, because we had to have our prescriptions filled.   We got the groceries first.  There were a few of us that had our masks on. At the pharmacy Carol had two fill and I had one.  We had to wait quite awhile as there were people ahead of us.  They wouldn't fill mine because it was already filled at Sam's Club.  He said that I could get ninety tabs for about $17.00.  That is pretty cheap.

The early corn is starting to tassel.  This is a new variety that we haven't tried before.  I watered almost everything.  I did a lot of weeding while watching the water. 

We were expecting company tonight.  They would get Carol's bedroom and Carol would sleep with me in my bedroom.   The tub didn't have a stopper.  I bought one while were in Fillmore.  We then wouldn't have to go to the main bathroom bathe.

Earwigs have damaged the Pole beans.  I went online to see what will kill them.  I was and equal mix of Olive oil and Soy Sauce.  I found a couple of small portion cups, but I needed a lid.  In the pantry there was a pint plastic peanut butter container I thought might work.   

Then I found a glass half pint bottle.  I found a lid and drilled five holes.   One at four edges and then one in the middle.   I put the the mix in the bottle.

I made a deep hole next the Blue Lake pole beans.

 I put it in the hole and covered soil against the lid. 

I did the same with a  fourth quart bottle on the other side of the bean hoops.

I read the directions again and the hole should be a quarter inch.  I re-dilled the holes with a quarter inch bit.

I have done this before and the cats have eaten the bait.  A lid and ring on the bottle prevents cats from eating the mix.
