Mostly edible. Sunflowers, Johnny jump ups and I got one seed that was not edible-- Peruvian flower that was so pretty and in all colors.

Thank you. I am like a comedy act. I can't stand to be bitten again so I carry around a Citronella plant when I water or garden. I had the plant and a little bag with seeds and veggies I picked. The seeds got out of the bag all over the veggies ------------------ Want To Ask Any Question About Bible Prophecy? Go For it. It is Free, of course. http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

Yea, gardens teach you that you have to make mistakes which is a wonderful lesson. You will kill things. You will screw up! Good lessons to learn ------------------ Want To Ask Any Question About Bible Prophecy? Go For it. It is Free, of course. http://www.mychristianpsychic.com/

I got something on Amazon that had a high rating but I have not used it yet because it really smells.
I rub tea tree oil all over my clothes and I still get bitten. I even carry the Citronella plant and get bitten but not as much. Do they go away based on the seasons?

I hate wide spread spraying as it seems so intrusive but I hope they really do it for the mosquitoes, as it is hard not to be able to enjoy the garden--weeding, planting etc------------------ Want To Ask Any Question About Bible Prophecy?

Di is right, they breed in standing water. BT is not a chemical, it is a bacteria, so isn't as bad as one might think. If you have a pond or something, that might be where they are coming from. Those little wiggle-tails in the water are your culprit.IP: Logged |

Doesnt eating citrus scare those little buggers away? They are always trying to munch on my feet, so I can hardly wear open shoes. I try to stay away from sweet smelling perfumes as it seems to attract them.IP: Logged |
