NOLA BugLady's Butterfly Plants will not be re-opening in September!
NOTE: Closing the Barber Laboratories store will free up my schedule for making speeches, promoting native plants, doing butterfly projects, plus writing more books and selling them. Retirement is beginning to sound b-u-s-y!
Linda, I’m so happy for you and so sad for us to lose your wonderful store. It’s selfish I know but please take it as the compliment it is - my g-kids are always so scheduled when they come and I’d always wanted to bring them in and let them release a butterfly with you. They love and use your book up here in Maryland. I know you will keep up all your work so well still see and work with you.
Happy Retirement! Anne Barnes
My dear friend, Anne- Thank you! Yes, my butterfly work will continue. Am brewing up some BIG ONES for next year so stay tuned @ nolabuglady.com
we are hosting the Region V Garden Club meeting in Allen Parish on October 19,2023 9-2
Our theme is Flora and Fauna, Our choices make a difference
We would love to have you as our speaker
Please forgive my delayed response! Since I retired, I have gotten out of the habit of checking the website, as you can see. I certainly appreciate your invitation to speak however, on that day I have promised to help my friend prepare and move plants for the Gardening Symposium in St. Francisville. Perhaps another date in the future, I could give my monarch presentation, "Monarchs, Migration, Milkweed, and Oe". Please contact me via email because I check that every day @ nolabuglady@gmail.com. Thank you for understanding!
My daughter just moved to NOLA from the NW-her apartment is infested with Cockroaches and she hasn't slept in two nights. She did hire an exterminator but I feel that there are other things that she can do as well to keep them at bay...suggestions???
Maxforce gel bait can be purchased at Pest-Stop. The roaches eat it, they go back to their nest, the other roaches eat their poop and then they all die. It comes in a tube. Apply small dabs on water bottle tops and place where you see the roaches. Keep applying it every night as long as they keep eating it. You will see less and less then none. Each situation is different...don't know how long it will take at her place.
