Metal Rustic
ladybugs on the 22nd floor?
Hi,
i live in a city, granted there is a lot of green not too far from here, but i also live on the 22nd floor... who knew ladybugs could get all the way up here?
for safety reasons we cannot have screens, but i cannot have the ladybugs or the wasp that was here.
i was thinking of putting up some sort of cloth screen and taping it to the metal window frame... i only open the window about 2 1/2 inches because i have a kitty and the vertical blinds would mostly cover up the rustic screen.
does anyone have any tips for what material would be best, what kind of tape i can use that will be easy to remove after a couple of years, and won't leave hard-to-remove residue?
any plants or herbs i could hang that would deter the bugs?
i need to open and close the windows for rain or whatever, so the tape needs to be cooperative.
any productive thoughts would be appreciated.
Thank You!
Well shouldn't you have screens for safety reasons so that no one falls from such a great height?
Ladybugs are cute, and they can fly and climb up walls, but it is surprising they'd come greet you on the 22nd floor!
For wasps, you should spray the frame of your window and see if there are any nests near your window.
Ask what your neighbors are doing about it. They should have the same problems as you.
Oooh! I just remember that burning insence could help deter bugs!
And though smoking cigarettes are known to repel dogs, maybe smoking could deter away bugs, too? I mean, honey bee people smoke out the bees to get there honey, right?
