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.

Moth Balls Working!

20 years ago

I planted out 66 plants on May 27. In the first week ground hogs chewed down 5 plants completely plus a few other side leaves. Then I tried putting a moth ball on a rock or wood piece next to each plant. There has been no damage in the last 10 days. The moth balls survived rain well too. Has anyone else found moth balls helpful against pests?
