I know there are beneficial bugs like ladybugs, which is fine with me, but what about the biting, stinging stuff?
We have everything from mosquitos, to bees, to black widow spiders. Our yard is part woods, part lawn, part raised planter beds. The woods are full of spiders and other creepy crawly things. I would like to enjoy the shade and serenity of the woods, so do I have to accept the bugs as part of the deal, or is there a way to repel them from wooded areas? I'd prefer non-toxic means, if possible.
(Especially the black widows--yuck! I'm afraid my dog will get bitten.)
