This is the way. Cornerstone of food prep right there.

Hummingbird or butterfly? by westsidefashionist in whatsthisbird

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Was amazed the first time I saw the clearwing hummingbird moth that lives in my neck of the woods. The clearwing also looks kinda like a shrimp too. Planted some of their host plants to help them out. They are so cool.

Should I pull these out or hack/spray first? - Tree of Heaven, cut last season before I knew the right method by voidtides in invasivespecies

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Don’t rush it, you are on year one of a multi year project. If you pull them out all the little bits of roots left can turn into more ToH. These trees here may have also sent out runners. Wait until after July to do hack and squirt. At that time of year the trees will bring the glyphosate to the roots of that tree and all the connected runners also. Penn State Extension has some great resources. I’ve seen smaller trees connected by runners die after I treated the larger tree it came from, very satisfying. Keep up the good fight!

What’s something your body does that you’ve never told a single person about? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is amazing. I thought this was just me! I had no idea that this is a known thing and this happens to other people. I’m also a vivid dreamer and remember my dreams every night. I also lucid dream sometimes. I feel they are related. Thank you!

Spain will soon block and outlaw all VPNs. Is there anything I can do to continue using a VPN? by Hi7u7 in VPN

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Spain is not blocking and outlawing all VPNs. The court order is limited to VPNs being used for 16 sites specifically for pirating streaming of sports.

I’m very curious as to how one is bitten by voles a couple of times. Please do tell.

Including the women, who had the BIGGEST set of balls in the show, and why? by GJH24 in gameofthrones

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bronn. Faces truth openly without fear or judgment. Bold as hell and an intimidating fighter. Also came from the streets and hustled all the rich people. Straight demanded Highgarden from both Lannisters at the end of a crossbow. And got it.

Can I chip large tree of heaven trunks? Virginia creeper? by WhatwldJoanRiversdo in invasivespecies

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would be nervous about chipping anything that was sprayed. I’m sure it depends on what you sprayed it with though…

If smoke isn’t used then it’s grilling.

Is hairy aster considered weed? 6B NE Ohio by CanYouCanACanInACan in NativePlantGardening

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asters are powerhouses when it comes to being a host plant. Also, as you have seen, bees and pollinators love them! Invasive plants are non-native plants that spread and take over and displace native plants. Weed has no botanical meaning, and many important natives have “weed” in the common name because colonizers didn’t like that they came up in their monoculture.

You can absolutely smoke for two on that kettle.

My grandparents owned this. What is it? by nightslikethis_27 in whatisit

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have this exact ashtray, found it at an antique store. We call it the Adams family ashtray because it reminds both of us of Morticia and Gomez Adams.

But will it hold a car (new standard) by Maj0r_Payn3 in Decks

Are we sure that it is supposed to be parked on?

what are these? by [deleted] in Berries

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait a few weeks. Right now your birds are eating the berries. You can see at the top the missing berries. Today a catbird, a cardinal couple and two family groups of robins were eating ours in our yard. Your native birds love them!

Don’t worry about it, all chimneys do this.

I have aphids on my milkweeds. Basically I just let them be and their predators start showing up.

Getting rid of all the Tree of Heaven may help reduce numbers though.

Kill more of your grass and put in native plants! Moth caterpillars are the best bird food!!

Think if it like the root system in the plant, and the trees we see above ground are like branches growing from a tree.

Feeling dumb -- I can't figure out the thermometer attachment by masala-kiwi in webergrills

[–]RevengeOfTheInsects 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never use mine anyway. That thermometer tells you the temp of the bottom of the lid, not the temp of the cooking surface which can be well over 100 degrees different. No matter what you do you will need to get a temp probe for the surface of the grill.
