This review is from: Bug Off!: 2,193 Super Secrets for Battling Bad Bugs . . . Outfoxing Crafty Critters . . . Evicting Voracious Varmints and Much More! (Jerry Baker Good Gardening series) (Paperback)

You'll save in the price of "chemicals" whatever you pay for the book . Cook it up on your kitchen stove and stop putting all those nasty "toxins" onto your lawn and garden. Jerry's "home remedies" really work . These books should be part of EVERY home gardeners library .
