This could be carrying "house cleaning" a bit too far!
But a steady stream of box elder bugs was heading up the tree...
and across the fence panels...
You see it's an ongoing competition out here with the little critters.
They can massively cover the south side of the house.
I've tried soapy sprays but they didn't seem to do the job.
So far, the best results have come from using a "wet vac"...
a vacuum that has water inside with a bit of liquid soap.
And you suck up the little fellows and dispatch them.
.
Yup... I think Martha Stewart would be proud!
