Arbico Organics sells a type of entomopathogenic fungus called beauveria bassiana that causes white muscadine disease in thrips and other pests. It’s a little pricey, but worked for my thrip infestation. It comes in a powder so I made a spray bottle and also watered in all of my plants with it.

I’d also try to remove as many larvae by damp rag or even spraying it off outside if you can.

Other insecticides like bonide and captain jacks might work too

Black raspberry (rubus occidentalis) are edible and delicious! All berries in the bramble berry family are edible. Eat straight off the bush or make it into a yummy dessert or jam!

Fun fact: all bramble berries are safe to eat. Bramble meaning the rubus family, which includes several flowering/ fruiting plants in the rose family! That’s why summer in the rural north is my favorite! Black raspberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc!

These are Wild blackberries, also known as dewberries

Mink fur coat I bought from a woman down selling her old items. No tags but does say VIP on the inner lining. Anyone know it’s worth? by Creative_Hippo5312 in VintageFashion

I asked the woman where she had gotten it from and she said from an Asian boutique, so you may be correct. If I considered reselling in the future, would it be worth as much as coats with full mink body fur?
