Yeah, we got bugs in North Texas too.
I’ve avoided permathrin because we have flowering plants in our yard that Mrs. L,TOWM likes and that stuff does in bees, too.
Carry on FRiend!
I only put it on our clothes.
BTW, we have a huge carpenter bee problem here. I’ve found that wasp spray into their holes will terminate, but my favorite method is a tennis racket. :)
