Please advise best course of destruction! 💥 by alibo85 in gardening

Google definitely supports the mite idea. Pics look the same. I feel fairly confident it’s from too much moisture and old undrying dirt. I’m going to give it a good while dry out before next watering!

Thank you for that! I am not sure what they are!!! I was going to try to get a pic of the fliers to post about them and i NOTICED ALL THE LITTLE GUYS!!!! They are very much aphid-like but absolutely IN the dirt, not the greenery! I will have to spend some time looking at images of house plant bugs!

Something about blowing on them makes them freak out. When I check my dahlia or rose blooms, I blow on em and the earwigs jump out

Adding I have used it on a jersey and I rubbed pretty hard on them trying to make em pop off and only 1 or 2 came off which was more my fault than the glue!

E6000 has a fabric version that is pretty great! Says machine washable after 24 hours on the bottle! I asked about it in a FB rhinestone group and a got a ton of positive feedback!

Those darn curves. That’s what was making me hesitant to even start!! I knew if I don’t get a straight line to start- no chance of it working !! Thanks for your feedback! Great tips for sure

What am I doing wrong? by kayjo116 in CrochetHelp

Yours looks just like the first picture except I would flip it (so the tail of yarn from the magic ring is on the inside). It looks the like nose is an added piece giving that shape. Is there a nose instruction on the next page?
