This guy moved into our area some years ago within 2 months we had people's sheds broken into and tools that was once safe too leave out your back garden before his arrival then started too go missing.
He was evicted but somehow managed too come back. I used him as many did too do the odd garden jobs but realising after a while he couldn't be trusted I found other people.
Then my previous next door neighbour had him doing their garden and as he was doing their back garden I caught him climbing up my fence and howled really loud at him.
He also was getting a lot of guys going around his back shed with vans parked up blocking local peoples access ( I suspected he was dealing drugs) then he was coming around with black eyes because he had upset some people.I wonder why (sarcasm)
It upset me knowing there were two lovely young mothers that lived close too him and they were always on edge.
Then finally at long long last he was suddenly gone. These ladies told me they are in heaven with the replacement neighbours, I'm so happy for them and for everyone here.
One of the sheds that was broken into the guy that lives there had almost died on a few occasions, no one needed this kind of worry on top of everything else.
He used his girlfriend and she was so low, she called him several times but he ignored her calls all day then that night she hung herself...
She was there for him through thick and thin and when he almost had a heart she stayed at the hospital all night in a chair just too support him, within a few months after that she was dead, life can be so cruel.
It's sad these sort of people are given homes near decent and vulnerable people. I think he thought I was vulnerable until he heard me shout and letting him know I didn't trust him, at all.
One must be creative these days. Print this off and hang it on the door of your shed, it works very well.

All that recent rain you have had,
now — temperature in the 90's?
More than ice tea needed, I'd be sitting down in the shade and turning that spray nozzle on myself!

I have plants coming up!
In this tub I planted parsley, oregano and thyme. I have tiny green dots.
I planted medicinal strain calendulas in this tub. Lots coming up, will probably transplant some to somewhere else.
I planted a dozen Anasazi sweet corn, old seed, in this tub. Only a few came up. Trying to replenish the seed.
This is buttercup winter squash.
Cucumbers! So I can make my crisp sweet pickles.
Front tub is zucchini, back tub is yellow squash.
A neighbor gave me 4 tomato plants. I planted beets around them.
I have blooms!
So that is my garden. It isn’t much, but at least I’m growing something. I’m looking forward to a ripe tomato.
Catalpa worms have attacked, I thought they only ate Catalpa leaves? I don’t have a Catalpa tree, but I have the worms.

those are some wild looking worms! i saw a mention of them being used for fish bait so perhaps you can sell them along the road?

My Daddy always planted Catalpa trees for the worms. Pick them off, put in a container, shake cornmeal over them so they don’t stick together and freeze them. Fish bait!
