Very few if any aphids and/or ants last summer, must have been toooo hot and dry and the ants had to take their business elsewhere. I got a chuckle about that product being armadillo repellant; wonder how long it'll be before they start moving in here--they say they are moving further north every year and will eventually reach near the artic in North America in time. My wife accidently ran over one late one night on a dark back country road shortcut in Georgia while we were returning to her parents from a party. The right front wheel of a Chrysler 300--sure made a bump and clunk. They sure must have a hard shell. But I've never known them to bother gardens. They need a wild boar repellant down there. I still say: lead at high speed works best for those types!
Other than that, I cleaned up some pots today and started getting stuff organized for seeding. I pasturized some sand and soil in the microwave today( Connies method--in gallon bags). I like that method. I'll do a couple bags every now and then and store them.
