    bear 1998 Hope you don't have termites in your area. I remember being told some time ago that having mulch up next to the house is a good way to invite termites in.

    I just went down to Bear's neck of the woods, about 30 miles south. I'm trying to figure out if the "gnats" are worse than the black fly's. I don't think the gnat's bite! Them dang black fly's will and also leave a mark :hair:

    I don't think we have black flies so much here but the deer flys leave a mark. Where were you at down this way?
