Master Gardener Presentation: “What Bugs You?”

Wednesday, April 24th at 1:00pm

 

No, not your husband, not the driver doing 30 in a 50 mph road, not… well, there can be a lot of little things that bug us.
And, some of them are real bugs. Before you swat it, spray it, drown it, find out what it is. We’ll cover good bugs, bad bugs, and bugs that are both. Outside, inside, and pollinators or not?”
