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.

Chives & pesticide

11 years ago

My chives became infested with black aphids. I used insecticidal soap. No effect. Last week I used Maxide Diazinon. Chives are now pest-free. How long do I have to wait before I can safely harvest?
