For those easily totally grossed out - LOOK AWAY! I have been cooped up this beautiful weekend with a poor sick baby boy. I have had four days straight of throwing up, gagging, Diapers that would make the toughest man's eyes water, and a sick dog that had to go to the emergency vet. Yes i have had it all happen to me this weekend.
So when deklen went to sleep tonight around 7, i had to get into the dirt and my plants. I watered my plants (out of my full rain barrel) i love my rain barrel, one little drizzle and the barrel is full. Then i decided well hey why not water the lawn and pick the worms that are destroying my yard and flowerbeds.
ok,ok, i know all of you are thinking that they are sooooo good, blah,blah,blah, but TOO many aren't good and they cause a lot of damage. You know that they make those little mounds in the dirt which is good fertilizer? well keep piling that up every day and my yard is looking like a mine field. It looks like i have moles in my lawn, never mind deklen running and twisting his ankle. Yes its getting that bad. So it is my mission to diminish the population, i know i will never be able to eradicate them, and some are totally good with me, but if i can lessen the population, it will help.
The below came from five minutes of picking them and i got 37. Some get scared back into the ground so i am going back out in five minutes to get some more.
Fishing anyone?
