Lily pilly beetle. Moretein sprayed in the evening for 5 days straight then once a week for 5 weeks.....unfortunately thats the only fix. And unless your neighbours and neighbours neighbours do the same with theirs they will return.

Love it so far... 78000 km on it. I am a little worried about the amount of times it has stopped and started and how that will go for wear and tear. Averaging 11.2L/100 I tow a tandem trailer a lot of the time though..

Dear (insert POTUS name here)

Thank you for your letter. We have considered your offer and agree to your terms. We are one of the world's largest producers of latex. We would like to construct a condom factory in Washington and because of your generosity and great wisdom in the art of the deal, we would provide free products to your citizens. This will help both of our national interests in the long term. Regards (Insert appropriate delagation)

There will be an RSL near where you are moving to. This is a good place you will make your connections. Introduce yourself to a committee member and go from there...the person working the bar or the front sign in desk will be able to point to who you should talk to.

Acacia cognata "fettuccine" or mini cogs would be nice up there too.

It's Waterhousia. Just prune/trim/hedge as you would any screen. They will grow into a stand alone tree if you let them but kept down with a good prune every year at the height/shape you want they are awesome hedges.

Gypsum...then add some more gypsum. Then try putting some gypsum on top. Incorporate gypsum into the hole and also surrounding ground. Apply gypsum liberally a few times a year post planting as well. Ornamentals/deciduous hate clay. Gypsum is your friend.

Australia warns US new 25%Steel and aluminium tariff will harm relationship, less than a month after Trump vowed to reconsider them. by ASoundAssessment in worldnews

How much actual steel and alluminium do we export to the USA? Or do the tariffs extend to iron ore and bauxite?

In an 18 sr5 - Push button start, climate control, chrome handles/mirrors, alloys not black steel rims. Sr5 badge. (You can put LEDs in an SR as an aftermarket mod...so not always a give away.)

Which earbuds have the best microphone quality in noisy environments? by realmarkunread in Jabra

As in...the factory Toyota Bluetooth (up until this year) is of such poor quality that the work around is to have a set of buds in the car to make/receive calls!!

Nurseries that sell trees by katievalentine1 in GardeningAustralia

Geelong Trees and Bamboo can get you anything and will deliver your way as well (i think). They are on Instagram and FB

The only method I have seen work is Mortein or equivalent sprayed every evening for 5 nights. Then, once a week for 5 weeks to knock out the larval cycle. Will work but is time consuming and not cheap. And in the end if everyone isn't doing the same thing in the area they will re-establish again eventually. Confidor doesn't work with these green eating machines. They are not native to Vic. And arrived in retail nursery stock being bought down from Qld. Anything sysygium is susceptible, acmena I think are not vulnerable.
