My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Bad Date Night for Squash Bugs - Tomatillos?

20 years ago

Hi,

While watering last night I noticed a great many mating squash bugs, which went on to meet their Maker after being smashed between 2 rocks. The funny thing was - I didn't expect to find them on a tomatillo plant. It looked like a singles' bar for squash bugs out there. Maybe it was margarita night?

Check your tomatillos!
