Was splitting wood from a pile of wood I bucked two years ago, biggest spiders I've ever seen, big brown wolf spiders, Wiz's nightmare, also ran into a hornets nest so had to call it a day.
I've been using the Demon WP with good results the last few years. I had a wicked bad centipede infestation a few years ago during a long hot, humid spell and they got rid of them and anything else that got in the way. My basement concrete wall outside was literally covered in hundreds of centipedes every night, some would sneak into the house but the dry air from the AC would shrivel them up, still they kind of freaked me out with the number of them on the foundation.
Mine was a little different, I don't blame you for doing what you did no matter the cost. In my case the registry messed up and no one took the blame. The $18 or whatever it was, was worth it to make it go away.
Between my hip and rod in my back its a PIA every time I fly, I used to have to do everything but take my pants off, now they have those phone booth looking things that go quicker.
Just had some local corn the other day, it was pretty good butter and sugar, the best corn comes out in later August, it's mirah, very sweet, better than silver queen.
