Pests

If I had to pick a favorite time of year, it's definitely now - late spring and early summer. The temperatures are usually comfortable (ok, today is a bad example of that), and the days are nice and long. The only downside - bugs. Lots of them. Many people have their own strategies for dealing with outdoor pests.

Remember I mentioned that this year I was going to try my hand at gardening?  Well, I've mainly been watching my boyfriend do the gardening, BUT I'm asking lots of questions and learning from him.  I promise I'll plant something myself before the season is out...

The weather has been pretty unusual the last couple of months, including a milder than normal winter. Unfortunately, this means that fleas and ticks could be a big problem this year.

The nature in Ocean County is second to none. But every now and then, nature gets just a little lost. That's exactly what just happened a few minutes ago.

This week we reported on an invader from Afghanistan that showed up at the Joint Base. No, it had nothing to do with the war on terrorism, it was an insect.
