There is nothing wrong with your browser, VTowner. The webmaster controls the horizontal. The webmaster controls the vertical. I too noticed a lull in postings, the first chance I got to post after I heard about the fire (I was busy trying to make a deadline at work, and I made it by 1/2 hour) I posted.
Guy, you might try that concoction I mentioned. I'm not sure about the ratios of each of the ingredients, but when I made it a few years ago, it worked against ticks, etc. A friend showed me the formula, which was in some kind of outdoors magazine several years ago. The people who gave this home made replellent said that in an area they usually go, with horses (I guess they sprayed them too) they normally pick up scads of ticks. But when they used the repellent, they hardly found any on themselves or the horses.
The ingredients are: white vinegar, water, Avon Skin-so-soft, and euclyptus oil. I believe you use one cup of white vinegar to two cups of water to, eather 1/2 cup or 1 cup of Skin-so-soft. I think you use just a tablespoon or two of eucaltypus oil in this formula. I recently aquired the ingredients but need to get a spray bottle to mix it in. The bottles used to spray plants with water worked before for me.
Thanks for reminding me about that, Guy.
I modified this post because I spelled your handle wrong, VTowner. I guess I'm so used to people who leave their rules of proper English behind when they go on the net and arbitrarily use lower case when they should use upper case. It's good to see someone bring good English into cyberspace.
