Hi (Furry)furriends ❤
What a week it was…
we were so busy with the garden…
that we hadn’t have time
to get back into the flow
of blogging again…
…you see…
I told Granny that we have a lot of
little black creatures hanging out
on our plants…
making the plants feeling miserable…
so I tried my intensive look
to furreeze them out..
but that didn’t impurressed them…
…at all…
on the contrary…
they felt invited by my looks
and spread themselves over a lot of other plants…
and with only two LadyBugs in the garden…
who were working overtime
to get the balance back into our garden…
Granny and Grandpaw had to take action…
because also other creatures felt invited by my looks…
and ate the leaves of our salix
in a momentum of time…
so while Granny is spraying water with Tea-tree
two times a day in the early morning and evening…
…like a little breeze…
on the leaves of the plants that are infected…
to get rid of the Aphids
on a natural way…
Grandpaw is busy collecting the whole invasion
of suspected boxwood caterpillars…
that already have eaten
the whole neighbourhood’s Boxwood trees…
…last year…
and now like to eat our garden too…
well…
it sure keeps them busy….
and I’m still on the look-out
to warn them in time
when a new invasion enters the garden…
and while I’m working overtime too…
I can do a little Artwork…
that I turned into a Puzzle too (click on it)
on LunaPic with the Garden-filter
and on top a little Brains-filter
just to remember
to use natural treatments for your garden
so the birdies can eat all the caterpillars
without dying of the toxic pesticides that most people use…
Remember:
…killing is never the answer
to keep an ecological balance…
of every creature in this world…
I have to go check…
the other side…
of our garden now…
right under the plants…
💗Have a wonderful day my furriends💗

Sorry about the invasion, but it’s true; it should be managed in an eco friendly way.

Thanks for your support, Alexis 😸Pawkisses🐾😽💞

Hope those nasty bugs and the other crawlers are gone now. UGH! I have to remember that trick, for later when those bugs come visiting here.
May 31, 2019 @ 09:06:41
It worked…YAY🎉Pawkisses🐾😽💞

Charlee: “Good job keeping watch on your garden, Binky!”
Chaplin: “Humans need all the help they can get!”
Lulu: “I’ll help you watch the garden if you want me to. I don’t mind.”
May 31, 2019 @ 09:05:55
You can take over anytime, Lulu 😀 Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 27, 2019 @ 00:59:13
Natural is best, Binky, I absolutely agree! 🙂
You look so lovely in your garden; just as pretty as a picture.. 🙂
xoxoxo

Thanks Carolyn ❤ Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 26, 2019 @ 22:46:20
Cats should have some affinity with caterpillars?
May 31, 2019 @ 09:04:05
I can’t help my looks, Col…😹Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 26, 2019 @ 12:17:49
You look so happy in your lovely garden, Binky!
May 31, 2019 @ 09:00:16
Thank you sweet Athena and Mary ❤ Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 26, 2019 @ 05:30:49
What a FABulous idea! I hopes they go away, and don’t eats any more of your garden! Butts, really….who could resist your adorable looks??? I so don’t blame them!
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
May 31, 2019 @ 08:59:53
I think you’re right, Ruby 😀 Pawkisses🐾😽💞

You are so cute Binky. Sorry your garden is invaded. Please stay away from the tea tree oil sprayed plants cos tea tree oil is very toxic to us cats.
May 26, 2019 @ 10:18:47
I know, CK, but don’t worry, Granny only uses a few drops in a lot of water in a watering can, besides…I can smell that oil from miles away and run away 😹 Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 26, 2019 @ 00:37:09
Bugs invading a garden is never a good thing!
May 30, 2019 @ 17:32:05
But at least we can manage it so far 😀 Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 26, 2019 @ 00:36:58
Bugs invading a garden is never a good thing!
May 30, 2019 @ 17:31:41
It’s hard work, Mudpie 😀 Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 25, 2019 @ 23:02:46
Wow those critters need to leave your garden alone and we hope Granny’s spraying gets them all gone Your artwork is beautiful and so are you sweet Binky. Hugs and nose kisses
May 30, 2019 @ 17:31:01
Thank you Mags and Chancy. The critters are gone and we have more LadyBugs..at least a few more 😉 Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 25, 2019 @ 22:31:19
That is such good advice, Little Binky. – and it keeps the garden and lawn safe for you to nap on in the shade,
May 30, 2019 @ 17:12:47
Exactly, Mary 😉 Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 25, 2019 @ 21:38:09
We love that you and your grand-pawrents are so ecological in the garden and hope they are able to make sure those nasty critters leave while the ladybugs do their endless work.
May 30, 2019 @ 09:34:05
Granny loves to be helpful in a natural way to all the plants and critters, Sam, Elsa and Monika. Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 25, 2019 @ 21:27:32
We hope your humans are able to get rid of those naughty bugs ! Nice art ! Purrs
May 30, 2019 @ 09:30:34
They’re so good as gone, Zorro and Pixie, so it worked again 😀 Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 25, 2019 @ 21:17:16
Sort of a shame that they eat plants in your garden, glad you noticed, so Gran could take action under your watchful eye! Now I need to do the puzzle! 🙂 Yay!
May 29, 2019 @ 21:45:10
I have it all under control, Ute and Thomas and we have a few more LadyBugs in the garden too. How does it get any better than this🐞Extra Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 25, 2019 @ 20:59:15
Hi Binky!
Your humans are furry forward thinking! We live next door to cranberry fields and I wish Ocean Spray was into NO spray. Alas, it kills the good bugs too!

Granny had to learn a lot herself about all this poisson errors, before she came this far, Marv. Pawkisses🐾😽💞

Tea tree, you say? Last week’s snow pushed us back a week, but the sun’s out now and it’s only a matter of time until the aphids come to visit. I covered my plants, so they came through the freeze with flying colors!
May 29, 2019 @ 19:44:35
Yes, Karel, we use Tea Tree against funghi and aphids and other kind of diseases on trees and plants, but only a few drops in a lot of water. Within two days all the Aphids have disappeared and the plants are growing beautifully again😺Pawkisses 🐾😽💞
May 29, 2019 @ 23:38:09
I’m going to try that this year! The snow last week has fended off the aphids for a while longer, but it’s just a matter of time.
May 25, 2019 @ 20:05:34
We put lady bugs in our garden over a decade ago and they’re progeny still do a great job – but they do need some help sometimes. Having bird feeders to attract the birds help too – they are good at getting the bigger bugs. Geckos are another help in our garden. You are beautiful as always Binky, love the art!
May 29, 2019 @ 19:38:18
Thanks for your input, CC. We have feeders for the birdies too, but when they see me in the garden, they fly over it…don’t know why’s that😺Pawkisses for a Happy Wednesday🐾😽💞
May 25, 2019 @ 19:24:22
You are a busy gardener sweet Binky and you have very pretty art too!
May 29, 2019 @ 19:28:28
Thanks Brian ❤ Pawkisses🐾😽💞
May 25, 2019 @ 18:33:37
