Well, it is Thankful Thursday!!!
Today I am joining Rebecca Jo and I am going to tell you what I am NOT thankful for!!!
I am SO stinking angry! I planted five basil plants and the dang japanese beetles ate EVERY ONE them! They chomped on all the leaves and left this icky black stuff all over ALL the plants! They were so destroyed I have to rip them all out! I am so angry!!
They are SO super gross!!
There is nothing I love more than fresh basil to enjoy throughout the summer! UGH!
I purchased a bug bag on Amazon and I plan to run my the plant store to see if anyone has basil plants left to purchase.
I will hang my beetle bag and re-plant hoping the beetles will leave them alone and get stuck in the beetle bag.
Anyone out there in blog land have tips for me!?!? Obviously I cannot spray anything since I eat the basil...please help!
Thanks in advance for any tips you have on keeping Japanese beetles away!?!?!?!
And...in closing...I am thankful for all of you, my family, friends, my pets, my home and never having to struggle to find something to eat. Basically thankful for EVERYTHING in my life today EXCEPT the stinkin' beetles!
HELP!
