| | I have a dilemma I'm hoping you can help with. I have a lovely healthy lemon tree in my backyard I am hoping to get fruit from this summer. It has been flowering wonderfully, but I have noticed there are some weird looking bugs on it. They look kind of flat and they seem to be sucking something from the tiny little lemon nodules. I am hoping their presence isn't going to be detrimental to my lemon harvest, but if it is, and I need to remove them from my tree, I am hoping to know of a way to do this without harming them (I don't want to kill them).Can anyone advise?x-posted to organic garden/ vegan peopleTags:"pest" control I have a vegetable garden, it's my first one. I've noticed this morning someone's been nibbling at it. We have mostly squirrels, chipmunks, rabbits, cats and occasional possums and skunks in my area. The sprays I found at the store were either inhumane, or 'not to be used on feed crops'. Any ideas?Tags:"pest" control I live out in a pretty densely wooded area and summer is almost here. This means ticks for me as I seem to attract them.I'm wondering if there's anything I might be able to do/make to repel them?Thanks in advanceTags:"pest" control Top of Page | | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
