+KimP Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I think everyone is having trouble by the sticky streets everywhere! Make sure to wet them down and release at night if you want them to stay on your tree Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wizardx322 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I watched the news about bugs and they say to not use pesticide or other poisonous chemical to kill them cuz they also kill the lady bugs and all. They say to just use a hose to try and spray them away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
