We did it with deo and lighter to get rid of those tiny scorpions (3-4 cm) we found in the morrocan desert.

Yup. We used to clap when we'd hear the mosquito truck come around (living in the vicinity of the Great Dismal Swamp had its disadvantages).

40 years ago the cockroaches in Boston were very genteel. If you turned on a light they would excuse themselves and retire to inside the walls.

Gosh, Bruce, that's hilarious. 100 people dead, barely a year ago. Maybe you want to pick a different emoticon, next time, though, to properly express your mental illness.

Yes, Bruce. I am shocked - SHOCKED, I tell you - that you would stoop to such an insensitive joke. This is supposed to be a family board!

A year ago. OK, how many people have died in the last year? The last month?
Week? Today? Damn, I'll never get this mourning coat off.
Since you're a Rugby player, you have no room to talk. Everybody knows you eat your dead.

Fiesta in San Antonio isn't really equivalent to Mardi Gras, so no, not really (not that there won't be partying going on)... more of a cultural/historical-based event... here's a </a href>website on it.

All kidding aside. Here in the great state of SC, we have fire ants. Supposedly they have a pesticide that'll work. So Clemson U has said. But because they cover 5-6 southern states. It would have to done all at the same time.
Those things are a real nuisance. Take them back to South American please! I'm also allergic to them.
