Title: New pets....?
Post by: undercarriage plan on July 13, 2005, 20:44:25
OK give up, concede defeat. I've decided, after the success of daughter's snail farm, to have new pets. Woolly aphids! Whatever I do, they thrive, I mean, they're not that bad, fluffy, white, undemanding and you don't have to put them in a kennel when you go away........  Lottie  ;D

...and if you save enough of them just think of the money saved on not buying cotton wool balls for make-up removal!!!

LOL! You asking wrong person, Roy! Whatever I suggest will make them even happier!! But you could try putting meths on cotton wool and wiping them off.  However, if you want plant to die, give them lots of tlc!!!  Lottie  ;)
