It's that time of the year and those dangerous critters are out and about.
Watch your step!

Yup, buzzworms - Mr. No Shoulders - whatever you call them, they need to be kept a watch for. I have not seen one in quite a while. That one pictured is a big boy!
Went out this past weekend, hot sticky and NO WIND - ugh, misery it was, shirt was pasted on body and no relief from wind. I had frozen a 2 liter bottle of water in freezer the previous night and drank from the thawing bottle, that kept me going.
An expedient oxygen absorber for a 5 gallon storage container can be made by placing a golf ball size piece of steel wool and a tablespoon of salt inside a paper napkin and placing it in the container. The salt will absorb the residual moisture and the steel wool will naturally absorb the oxygen.

Make Your Own Electrolyte Beverage (Gatorade, Pedialyte, etc.)
To one quart of water add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 8 teaspoons of granulated sugar. Thoroughly mix all ingredients together.
This will replace electrolytes lost by the body due to dehydration caused by diarrhea, vomiting, excessive sweating, etc. A package of Kool-Aid, Crystal Light, etc. may be added to enhance the flavor and color.

This rattler was slightly less than four feet long....fairly common size in this area.
We've got all of the bad boys around here...rattlers, copperheads, water mocassins.
