under attack!

under attack! by croncast.
*^these little bugs know! they know that i am allergic to them.

sitting here in the man pit minding my own business working and this rouge beetle (it's not a lady bug, i can't be allergic to lady bugs) takes up residence on my jeans. better here than my flesh.

it is a sure sign that spring is on its way and that i need to invent a lady bug, ahem, beetle repellent for those also allergic to these stealthy japanese beetles.

@schlomo - scratch madison from vacation list.

we used to use a shop vac at our first house to remove them. high power suction is more human than swatting them with sheet metal.
