chest cold update and aphids query

posted by [personal profile] devohoneybee at 07:21pm on 13/05/2010
Doc gave me a nebulizer treatment in the office, an albuterol inhaler, and a prescription for a better chest congestion clearer outer that the pharmacy will have in tomorrow. The pharmacy guy felt so bad they didn't have it today, he gave me a $25 gift card for the CVS store. I'm taking one more day home as I'm a bit feverish and achy and coughing rather noisily, especially when I have to talk.

But the treatment and albuterol are already helping, so I'm hopeful this will clear up in the next few days.

On another note, anyone know a good way to get rid of aphids on rose bushes? Preferably not too chemically?

dish-soap and water in a spray bottle. spray it on and the aphids go away.

the partner says to remind you that you might have to do it more than once, so keep an eye out.

For 'nebulizer' I read 'neuralizer' and was slightly alarmed at first!

Oh, and, praying mantises eat aphids, if you can find a way to import any.

Er, I think I meant ladybugs. Not sure about the mantises. Sorry. I know we used to be pleased to find ladybugs on the roses because they kept the aphids down.
