Gypsy Moth
http://www.in.gov/dnr/entomolo/gypsymoth/pubmeet05.htm
The plane is flying over our area today to sprinkling pheromones flakes to attract the gypsy moth that has infested the northern part of Indiana. This is the time of year they start their mating. The pheromones attracts the male but makes it impossible for him to find a female because the scent is everywhere . unable to mate the male dies without producing any eggs. The oaks are saved just a bit more this year.
Met up with Annie and Kim again last night. what a wonderful night to be outside talking. They are blazing a path for us mothers with daughters. sitting there listening and learning. I want to thank all of those who have blazed a path for us younger familes in one way or another. We as a family have seen the good the bad and the ugly, none of which we have hidden from our daughters. I guess we didn't have a choice in some areas. But that is life. whats to hide?
