This means, in general, natural control for all those bugs that help themselves to our crops. Cabbage moth layers its eggs on the leaves of cabbage, and caterpillars are the result.

Quote of the Day © BrummetMedia.ca "I remember a hundred lovely lakes,  and recall the fragrant breath of pine and fir and cedar and poplar trees.  The trail has strung upon it,  as upon a thread of silk,  opalescent dawns and saffron sunsets.  It has given me blessed release from care  and worry and the troubled thinking of our modern day.  It has been a return to the primitive and the peaceful.  Whenever the pressure of our complex city life  thins my blood  and benumbs my brain,  I seek relief in the trail;  and when I hear the coyote wailing to the yellow dawn,  my cares fall from me —  I am happy."  ~ Hamlin Garland (1899) ~~   Visit the Brummet's @:  http://BrummetMedia.ca
