The better half purchased one of these several weeks ago : https://www.amazon.ca/Dynatrap-DT1260-M ... 7593&psc=1

Bought another recently.
The basket has a few moths and plenty of mozzies. Usually don't have many bugs here but as it has been wet recently, more mozzies that usual, until she put the traps up.

How more simple can stores make it so shoppers can social distance, of course there are stupid :cuss: who don’t bother. When you politely point it out they tend to bite your head off... so :cuss: you to.

Ma, you gotta stop looking at playboy mags.
A gorgeous young thing like you only gets flashes when looking at those kinda pics.

No drivers education as standard high school curriculum.

In the stead of generations of bad drivers teaching yet another
generation of bad drivers.

The present method/policy/practice is dismal at best.

Facebook sites where the admins let people post what they are not supposed to post.

"This site is for nicer home decor" has farm fruits and vegetables posted. I've seen this happen before, where "anything goes" leads to people just not using the site anymore. They joined for a reason, YOUR description, not to see what others impose on you.

My pet peeve is that the sprinkler company wants to come blow my sprinklers out now when I'm still needing water to water my garden. They used to do it in mid-October, but every year is earlier and earlier.
