I have a big welt on my leg where a horsefly bit me while I was in the tall grass chasing a new horse who pushed his way past me out to a far pasture one hot day. I have been using a lot of natural repellants but with lots and lots of rain the gnats, mosquitoes, flies, biting flies, and horseflies have been much worse than normal. Ticks have been fewer this season but this did not stop J., our youngest from being diagnosed with Lyme Disease this year, which I heard in the last year that Nova Scotia now has too ! Nowhere beautiful is safe !<br /> Hope you are a bit better,JaneofVirginiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15320442534060401465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3136150101440535605.post-43877290879079416182013-07-15T23:27:33.753-03:002013-07-15T23:27:33.753-03:00I am a 9.

It just sort of fits, somehow. I'm sorry you are sick, and I hope you get better soon.

I wonder if putting some honey or Tumeric on the bite might help? Folks in India not only use tumeric in cooking but also for treating cuts and minor abrasions. Plus what a great excuse to make a real Indian curry! <br />I looked up the shipping for the beer to Canada and "Good Lord and butter" it cost much more than I expected. I guess I'll just have to send you the recipe when you guys are ready to make all-grain beer.<br />For your bird problem I wonder if you could break up some glass and basically put down a thin layer of morter/cement and then stick the broken bits of glass before it dries. The US Army does that to the top of Stone walls and roofs to discourage folks climbing and as a security feature. Using different colored glass you can make a pretty mosaic that catches the light and has a nice look.
