    Sounds good to me. I do just about the same thing (we can't burn) and I use the cheapest garden amendment I can find.

    You'd hate it around my house... I'm a professional fly killer... and I scream for my DH when I see a spider. If he doesn't come fast enough, I unload half a can of whatever I can find on it. :o
