One of those off-the-grid bloggers living out near Terlingua Texas has a bug problem. Terlingua is in the Big Bend region, which is not that close to me. Remember, Texas is a mighty big state. Terlingua is probably over a 100 miles away. But close enough for me to be concerned.
Oh, goody!
Well, one thing that worked on roaches was Boric acid. I used to have a lot of trouble with roaches, but not anymore. What happens with Boric acid is that the roaches will walk over it and it gets all over them. It doesn't kill them immediately. What it does is that it gets into their system and then it kills them. How? When they clean themselves, they ingest it. Ka-ching! That's what kills them. Simple system, but will take a few days, and they're gone for good.
This particular bug problem ain't a roach, it's a type of small fly. Maybe a midge or something like that. Some of these midge species will bite. Uh-oh. May need to wear some type of protection. They are troublesome right after a rain, which is causing this fella a big problem with his rainwater collection efforts. Another big Uh-oh.
