They Look Like Bumble Bees, But Are Slow and Bore Holes in Wood
This week I was noticing saw dust all over the floor of a shed I had recently built in my back yard. Where was the saw dust coming from? The first thing I thought was that we have drilled holes in the wood and carpenter ants are eating away at the wood. Then, as I was observing the holes, more sawdust was being pushed out of the holes.

Accumulations from anywhere between a trace to half a foot...…Mother's Day is usually a time for people to pick some flowers growing in the yard for mom, but is it possible that we could wind up getting snow and a winter storm on Mother's Day?
