Thanks everyone for the ideas. I have a few Mockingbirds in my yard this year, I also see a lot of Mourning doves in my yard. I forgot about a bird bath lol
Linda, thanks so much for the link, I learned a lot and I'm going to try a few of those tips. I've heard of Nolo, but I didn't know it effected mantids and crickets. I did some research and I found out its illegal to have chickens here, otherwise I would love to raise a couple of chickens.
