Weekend Report

Here is a recall that Henry sent to me that I thought I would pass along. Chicken Recall

Also there is an email going around about the Formosan Termites being in mulch, here is the subject.

"If you use mulch around your house be very careful about buying mulch this year. After the hurricane in New Orleans many trees were blown over. These trees were then turned into mulch and the state is trying to get rid of tons and tons of this mulch to any state or company who will come and haul it away. So it will be showing up in Home Depot and Lowe's at dirt cheap prices with one huge problem; Formosan Termites will be the bonus in many of those bags. New Orleans is one of the few areas in the country were the Formosan Termites has gotten a strong hold and most of the trees blown down were already badly infested with those termites. Now we may have the worst case of transporting a problem to all parts of the country that we have ever had. These termites can eat a house in no time at all and we have no good control against them, so tell your friends that own homes to avoid cheap mulch and know were it came from." Here's the link: Click here: LSU Ag Center . Formosan Subterranean Termites Portal


I sent this to Henry seeing that he lives down there, and this is pretty much bogus.

Here is the real link for the LSU Ag Center


I've got things to do and places to go...
Enjoy your day!!!
