Please do NOT throw away your mascara wands. Instead, clean JUST THE WAND with dawn soap, place them in a ziploc bag and mail them to a Wildlife Refuge accepting donations. These little wands are able to be upcycled to clean away oil, larvae, fly eggs, mites, infections, mud and other contaminants from wildlife. Works great for medical care and wound treatment

Pick your refuge to mail to:

Appalachian Wild
P.O. Box 1211
Skyland NC 28776

OR

Wildlife Wands
P.O. Box 1586
Southwick, MA 01077.

I love doing yard work in the wintertime, no bugs and not too hot.

Vermicomposting is also a great way to continue composting in cold weather. FMI see www.wormmainea.com

I would like more ideas of how to keep the critters out. It seems no matter what deterrents I use the buggers are a nuisance.
