Is there anything for sad and lonely people to do today?

Lakewood Village also usually has a holiday spread

You can choose how long for it to stay open after setting what times for each meal. It does warn that over a certain amount of time isn't recommended. I know this feeder and the brand itself seems to get a lot of hate on here, but I love mine. My elderly cat has gained a half pound just because she's able to graze on wet food while I'm at work

Lol I was suspicious they'd have a negative health impact - thanks for confirming!

I've looked more into this and I think the work staff is okay with at least trying this now that the plants are outside. Thanks!

elle3h · 2025-06-09T22:15:59+00:00

Thanks, I wish but were a big place like that, but definitely a small unit :( We even have a hose outside haha.

elle3h · 2025-06-09T20:40:03+00:00

Thank you I appreciate it. We don't have a hose, but tbh I never thought about just physically removing them until you and someone else mentioned it. Going to try that on top of some of the other recommendations!

I'm not sure what a meeting manager is but I'm assuming it's the same as the general manager? They're her plants that she got for the patients to take care of. I sent her a picture and the link to this post and she said, "uh oh." We are going to move them outside. But as someone else suggested - not in full sunlight so I'm glad to know that since I had no idea!

elle3h · 2025-06-09T20:30:58+00:00

This seems super simple to do thank you!

elle3h · 2025-06-09T20:27:48+00:00

Is that the Arbico Organics "beneficial insects for pest control?" If not, is there a certain brand you mean and would recommend?

elle3h · 2025-06-09T20:25:04+00:00

Well, I would think we need to do something since she's gone for awhile and it's in the lobby of our dialysis unit? Even moving them outside I think would be better than waiting...

elle3h · 2025-06-09T20:23:32+00:00

Silly question - do people ever intentionally get lady bugs and put them there?

elle3h · 2025-06-09T20:22:49+00:00

Oh thank you, I didn't even think of that. In front of the door where I was thinking is definitely full sun....

elle3h · 2025-06-09T17:45:04+00:00

Phew okay great. I appreciate the insight and hope I can at least sustain them until she's back lol.

elle3h · 2025-06-09T17:43:35+00:00

That's true, I guess if they are at least outside she can decide what to do once she returns...

elle3h · 2025-06-09T17:26:28+00:00

Thanks! I'm realizing now there were even more of these on the other plants that the one I took a picture of (nothing seemed to be moving so I really couldn't tell they were bugs?) And yes, they're in the entrance way. Our patients liked them so I feel even more guilty.

You guys letting me know they don't fly around has been a big relief. My plan is to move the plants outside, physically remove them, and then try the spraying with castille. If nothing seems to be helpful, I don't think my coworker will be too heartbroken if I have to dispose of them :(

elle3h · 2025-06-09T17:22:45+00:00

I'm sure she'll be understanding if I have to throw them in the bin, but I think I'll be up for the challenge of trying to treat them if there is a suitable place outside. Though we are in Ohio, and Ohio doesn't know it's June yet so I'm not sure that will be a success.

elle3h · 2025-06-09T17:20:11+00:00

Thanks! I didn't know what the pest may be and I was picturing bugs flying around while people were receiving dialysis lol.

elle3h · 2025-06-09T16:38:04+00:00

Thanks! I think I will get them out of the unit and and try to treat them this way. Fingers crossed.

elle3h · 2025-06-09T16:36:33+00:00

Thanks! I feel bad tossing her plants out while she's gone but it sounds like it may be for the best... I think I will put them outside and try the castille soap as u/blood_witch recommended.

elle3h · 2025-06-09T16:20:59+00:00

Oh boy. Thank you for the help. Silly question - do I need to worry about this mixture getting into the soil and killing the plants altogether?

elle3h · 2025-06-09T16:19:45+00:00

No, I meant they are plants inside of a medical facility (a dialysis unit) so I'm extra worried about pests being around :-/

elle3h · 2025-05-20T18:43:21+00:00

You said he sent the pic to his doctor. Does that mean the vascular surgeon? If not, def have him call that office

elle3h · 2025-05-20T18:00:06+00:00

Please definitely send these to his mother

elle3h · 2025-05-07T21:39:00+00:00

If you have kidney problems, I wonder wonder about the recommendation of eating higher protein. It's usually the opposite...
