I have a wife and 5 kids and here the mosquitos don't care what time of day or night it is. If you go outaide they swarm. It's not uncommon for a lid to come inside crying and welted and yelling about how terrible the mosquitos are. Yes, I want to be safe and support my local wildlife. I...

Yeah. I'd put it a ways away, which also means I wouldn't want one with a cord, which means it'll be $800 :( We bought a Flowtron Diplomat last year and that killed a lot of bugs, including skeeters. Probably a lot of good ones too. Now THAT is a big bug zapper. It also lights up the night...

Everyone has their thing(s) but most come with experience. I, for the life of me, can't organize anything. I know good organization when I see it but I can't come up with a plan to do it, whether that's a garage a closet or clothing. I look for pics, ideas and videos to help, but it's just a...

I can get these guys to go in our cycloned run at night, but we've lost some to coyote because they're so dumb they cant see the gate that's open. They'll be out in our yard, outside of the 10k fence, and I'll step incredibly slow towards them so as to not spook them and just make them fly and...

My wife commented on that market. Then said "sure, if you can catch them you're welcome to them". Those guys will fly a good 30 feet up into trees and happily hang out there for hours

Oh I'm fine with the chickens, but those Guineas gotta go to the big soup pot in the sky.

Figured I might as well start this and give myself something to update and post to over time So we moved to a 10 acre plot in mid 2018 with our 5 kids and a few chickens. My dream was wanting to start a tree farm to sell native deciduous species to local folks and a few environmental...

Ok, so the shears omare a minimal use item; it's more about the knife. That's what I'm taking away from your two comments

So I've never harvested and deboned a chicken or bird before. However, given my recent post in What did you do in the garden today? the time is nigh for me to be bagging up some guineas. I know I'm going to need some deboning shears, so what's your goto one for your kitchen and poultry...

Make some Tennessee Hot Guinea is what you're saying?

I do love gumbo. Mmmmm.

I topped off my corn rows with a compost, sand and horse manure mixture. I then told my wife in no uncertain terms "I just topped the corn rows. If in a month, when I put seeds to soil, those Guineas start digging at my corn and sunflower rows they're going in the freezer" We have chickens...

How fast does it go through a tank? I've been curious about those but they get Spendy real quick

I'm not spreading orange peels around 10 acres of land. I get that people say this along with "plant lemongrass", but lemongrass doesn't grow here. I will spread seeds for mint in my prairie grass seeds that are native to the area. Looking for solutions that I can implement while also raising...

I think the previous owners just sprayed permethrin and that's just not something I'm going to do. I've been planting and spreading more wildflower and prairie grass seeds in order to start attracting more species of birds. We get a ****load of dragonflies here that swarm really good, but it...

If only it were that easy :/. 5 kids, lots of gardening and land tending for myself and then a tree farm + my daytime job means I don't get to be selective of my hours I can be working outside. Plus, kids want to play when the kids want to play, so I'd like for them not to come in looking like...

Anyone tried applying Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis to their property to help control your mosquito population? Here's another option as well: https://spartanmosquito.com/mosquito-control/ Looking to not hate being outside on my own property this summer :/

I suppose that would be a use. Hahaha

It's curvy as hell

I think he fixes some saws up and sells them. Whenever people say they have multiple Xs for sale I have to think that's their hobby
