You may remember the title as a road trip hunt for VWs, but your garden has them, also. Now is the time to place bait near the things they munch on. Beer in a pan will drown them, or you can set out small pots for them to rest on, then pick them off one by one and dispose of them. Slug bug! Gotcha!
By love I mean Valentine's Day cards. They've been stocked in stores for a month, so now is the final call before only the dregs are left, especially if your kids hand them out at school. Prepared ... love shared!
