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.

grapefruit trees under attack

10 years ago

I burnt of weeks of vacation and left some trees in the wearhouse at work. Went in and saw an infestation on my two grapefruit trees only. The lemons, peppers, banana and Barbados cherries are untouched.

I fight with jumping aphids and grasshoppers every summer outdoors, spider mites and brown scale every winter indoors but these buggers I haven't seen before.

Looking for a plan of action other than my soap spray.
