Summer has nearly started. With record rain and cool weather this spring the insects are slow to start their infestation of the landscape. Something tells me they are still coming and in large numbers. We arrived Friday night of the long weekend and found the shed as we left it. When we left last time we had to bug bomb the shed as there was an infestation of bugs and spiders living in and on it. Nine Huntsman, large Centipedes, European wasps, Cockroaches and a few bugs I have never seen before marched on there way. One Huntsman stood out as it was the size of an adults hand.We love the fact the "shed" is in a healthy environment but there is a point where one thinks this is ridiculous, there was more life inside than outside. We where happy to find a bug free home. We spent one day weeding and one day checking out the local markets. A large kangaroo passed the kitchen window one evening to everyone's surprise. The vegie garden is going well with the carrots doing the best. Next time we go up we will dine on organic carrots hopefully before the bugs find them (locust).
