Carolyn is the sweetest neighbour you could have. She is helping you turn that little place into a garden of eden
I wait for that last line in every video, "Jesus Christ, He's my Lord and Savior." Good bless your Sunday.
Me too!
Me three!
I don't know if you have the time to watch him, but Robert is restoring his family farm in Waverly Hall, GA on "The Old Byrd Farm" YT channel and he has another YT channel called "Adventures into History" where he goes around documenting old cemeteries/graveyards, homesteads, "lost" towns, in the Waverly Hall-Talbotton area.
Hi Kevin, I Love the pots that Carolyn bought for you. I think your trees will look so nice in them. Give big hugs to the babies for me. How is Carolyn's doggie doing? We don't see him much. Thanks for sharing some of your comings and goings with us, your friend Louise
Put lavender pots around your campsite, mosquitoes don't like them.
And marigold, basil, and mint.
I live here in South Georgia and you are absolutely right about them bats. The people here are the best and friendliest of any place I’ve ever lived. They wave at everyone going by. They also wave at everyone they meet. There’s nothing not to love about South Georgia. I remember them pics from long ago. Hey Kevin, it’s windy here too.
Wondering if u can just grow lavender all over then to help? Gotta look up if it's toxic to cats and dogs tho.
@@steelmagnolia9924 I grow all these plants just because I like them. I have them in pots on my patio but never noticed that they make any difference in deturant from bugs.
@@billbsnapshot220 Marigolds contain pyrethrin, one of the oldest bug deterrents known. You can still get pure pyrethrin as a bug spray or mixes with it in it.
I've seen People use Lemongrass
And
Out Door Tent material Gazebos With Netting to keep pests out
Fun to see The Woof Pack🐶🐾🐾
Praying For Felix
Happy Trails👣👣🌄
Safe Travels🙏✝️🕊
Enjoyed your video as usual! Thanks for sharing your life with us. Those pups wouldn’t have any hair left if you actually gave them a kiss or a hug every time we asked you! Poor babies!! But we’d reach out and kiss 🐾each one of them if we could. 💖😊🐾 Oh, we love you, too. 😉 stay healthy and HAPPY out there in AZ.
💞🙏🏼😃 Deb
3:05 The Aussie salute, otherwise known as the Barcoo salute (named after the region around Barcoo River, Queensland, is the gesture commonly deployed all across Australia to deter bush flies (Musca vetustissima from the human face.
The movement responds to the fly found in Australia, the bush fly.
The Musca vetustissima is attracted to such fluids as saliva, tears and sweat,[5] resulting in them often hovering around human faces.
With things such as cork hats popularized to help keep off the fly, the gesture can be spotted across the country, not just in regional areas.
The gesture is so common in Australia, it can be commonly seen in media.
Such illustrations of the gesture colloquially referred to as the "Aussie salute" include UA-cam videos, national television, and online publications.
I recognized the bug wave as soon as you started … no-see-ums on coast of South Carolina bury into your pores. Avon’s Skin So Soft is good for your skin. If you put it on heavy enough the bugs mire up and drown. 😅😮😂
True
Avon skin so soft👍👍

Yellow jackets are attracted to many things, including:
Food
Yellow jackets are drawn to sugary liquids, meats, fruit, vegetables, and more. They can be found around grills, patio dining areas, and outdoor picnics. In late summer and fall, when food is scarce, they may also scavenge for other food sources, which can lead to conflicts with humans.
Smells
Yellow jackets are attracted to sweet smells, such as those from flowers, soda, and juice. They are also drawn to floral-scented perfumes and aftershave lotions.
Colors
Yellow jackets are attracted to both bright and dark clothing.
Open spaces
Yellow jackets are often found around open cans of garbage and open cups and cans of soda.
I second the Thermacell, for mosquitoes. I haven't ever used it for anything else. You have to give it a few minutes to warm up, and place it a little up wind.
I didn't know that they still made the citronella coils. I remember my parents buying them at the drive-in concession stand and burning them to keep the bugs away. There was no A/C in the car so all the windows were down. I was just a little bit waaay back then.
Vanilla works as a natural deterrent....just dab a bit behind your ears and on your neck. You can add a few drops to baby oil so it sticks better. My east Texas cousin told me about this years ago and has been my go to ever since....😊
Here in East Tennessee what I do I put out a fan in my back yard Oasis,😊 because mosquitoes cannot handle that kind of air current. It seems to work now sweat bees I'll have to give me a little bit more time on the sweat bees. So yeah that would not be suggestion would be having a fan out there blowing on y'all ain't nothing nicer than I have a breeze man-made or God made.
Way back in the olden days, they used to give us a free mosquito coil to burn in our cars at the drive-in here in S. Florida. I don't know what it was made of, probably something toxic lol. Glad you found something that works. 🤗
Pic coils. They still advertise them at the drive ins.
Our family used the green round bug coils when we went camping in the late ‘60’s and ‘70’s. Things that work stay around! And I inherited the plastic table cloth with the small hole from a piece that dropped. Memories!
We have noseeems here in MA they love to get in your eyes! Whats worse are the biting horse flys that are out here now. We get coyotes in our backyard here. Journey could probably take 1 or 2 , he's 107lbs but I've seen packs of 5 or 6 run through. Great tip for the bugs thank you ill give it try. Give the pack some scratches from us.
Lol, hubby walked the dog outside early this morning 3 AM, next thing I know he's taking a shower. Bugs bitting right through his t-shirt. We've used the pik coils for decades . First learned when I lived in Alaska.
Love camping, hate bugs. I use the Thermacell rechargeable repellers. I have one by the rv door, one on my folding camp table and one inside my little 6ft Quick Set Clam shelter. I also have that rechargeable bug zapper I hang on a garden hook by the door of my Clam. I have a tiny one for inside the rv just in case one of the wee buggers gets inside. My back up is an old fashioned fly swatter. When I walk my dog early in the morning when the no-seeums are rising out of the grass, I wear socks and long pants. I have a light weight safari hat with fly netting . I’m the person you want to sit next to, the bugs choose me first.
You can just dab water on the bug coil to put it out it drys quick❤
Bugs are bad here in central Florida this year too
One thing you were worried about roundup last week. I worry about anything I inhale or breath thru or put on my skin. Especially on amazon or ebay so many knockoffs. Who knows what chemicals they put in things that burn or say a filter you breath through. Its hard and cost more but most of those items I try to buy in the U.S made. I know parts come from china, that are made here. I am trying to drop the odds of getting dangerous stuff. I don't even buy car oil filters on amazon or ebay because need my car to function properly not taking a chance.
I am glad your multi layered bug defenses are taking care of the pests. We have been using coils for years and they work on pretty much most of our pests.
Hi Kevin, another great Video.
In Salt Lake we Have mosquitos and yellow Jackets. The yellow jackets will put there nests along the eves of your house. I get the spray that shoots 20 feet.
They also stay in the railing around my porch. I use the gray tape on the bottom of every upright to keep them out of there. Thankfully we don't have gnats or fleas. I use Avons Skin so soft. It works
Great for the mosquitos. Enjoyed seeing the woof pack, Love them. You are so blessed with your furbabies.
Take care of yourself and stay Healthy.
Give the babies tummy rubs and ear scratches.
Know you and your friends are always in my prayers.
Skin so soft works great against mosquitoes!
That's exactly what I use, tiki torche citronella oil and misquito coils. The way I put the coils out is I just dip the fire into a little bit of water. It's completely dry by the next evening when I need them.
Suggestion: Place Dexter a charming doghouse that he can come and go from next to your chair as a safety zone from bug zapper.
Great little video!! Always love seeing the woof pack!! I use the citronella too. Not really wild about the open flame though. Those coils have been around for at least 60 years that I know of, and they work!! Take care!! My love to all!! Please give Carolyn and sweet little Gypsy Rose a hug from me.
You need a Dyna trap I believe it is called. They usually sell em on deals at QVC but they sell them all over. Kills only bad bugs, can cover up to an acre. It works differently than other choices, watch the videos. It is quiet, no zapping.
That is what I use on my patio and though I don’t sit outside when as hot as it has been a lot, I do work in garden in the early morning till about noon. I works very good on mosquitoes and gnats and flies, for no see ums I put on Avons Skin so Soft oil. The Dyno Trap has at least two different sizes I use the large one now that all kinds of pests are around.🎉. That Dexter will steel your heart, he is a good compliment to the pack.
Organic coconut oil. No more bites. SALUD.
Im from a town along the florida/ga line and the no-see-ums are terrible. I would never cut the grass or work in the yard with fresh washed hair because they would eat your scalp up!
Our Thermacell works great in Ohio for mosquitos. You can tell the difference every time within 15 minutes of turning it off and/or on. Enjoy the summer, Kevin!
Get him a stress jacket. I can't remember the name. It's a lite vest that stops anxiety.
thunder something
Thunder Shirt!
It rained and rauned and rained like a monsoon. I havent seen persistent rain like this so much they put out a travel advisory to not tracel unless your trying to get away from flooding. Sun is out but lots of puddles.
I would put up a little metal area fence around the sitting area to keep the babies safe. They are portable and easy to move.
It is hard to find "strike anywhere" matches !
Colorado where I live we are being invaded with SPRINGTAIL BEATLES. They come out in the evening are drawn to light. Unreal they cover the floors in the store's that are open 24 hours.
Yes, he high dessert does not have the mosquitos, but gnats can be bothersome. Great tips. Thank you. Keep the woof pack happy!
A UA-cam named Steve Wallis uses the Thermacell.
So far.. no bugs in w.mass just crazy people!
For no see ums you need to use some kind of skin oil, they get on you and suffocate before they bite.
Get a country vet barn sprayer...battery operated..put fly spray in the sprayer. It will spray every 15 minutes...no mosquitos, Flys either.
Very safe spray
Kevin, I’m on the TN-GA border, right off I-75. The bugs are awful. I use Cutter outdoor fogger to clear the area. Then I fire up two Thermacell tiki torches and I have two more tabletop units if I need them. I also have the regular tiki torches for the perimeter grilling area and I use the citronella oil in them. Each of the thermacell units costs approximately $5 to burn for 4 hours. It’s cheaper if you buy the large multi-packs. I just stock up over winter and accept the fact I’m going to spend $10 a day to remain bug free. It’s worth the cost!❤TN Nana
I remember using the green coils years ago. Great ideas.
All those biting critter's bug's me!😁🦟🪰🐝🕷🪳
We spent many summers in Canada were no-see-ums are so small they can go through most screens so you have to buy no-see-um screens. In the spring that had black flies, they're nasty. We bought the Pic® coils some 40 years ago. In Alaska we left the light on in the front of the RV with a coil burning all night. Had to clean off everything in the morning cause it was covered with dead bugs.
Thanks for the tips my friend I've yet to meet 😎 ✌️
Mosquitoes have just started in Wisconsin & we're 6" above our normal rainfall. So it's a cloud of skeeters that attack when you step outside. Bug zapper helps but is not perfect. I also use those sticky tapes that unroll & hang, I use tacks to hold the top & bottom to the trees or house. It's a battle.
Hi Kev and babies. Put coffee in a can or glass jar and burn it it’s supposed to keep all bugs away. I just saw this so not it sure if it works but the people that put the video out swore it did. Much love and many blessings
We had those mosquito coils when I was a kid back in the 60s. My dad used them when we went to the drive-in movie theater. They do work well. Glad to see that you all are doing fine. God bless.
Remember, Kevin. You don't use bear spray the way you do bug spray. Don't forget this! Take care, and may God bless all at Camp Vagabond.
We had a very mild winter here in N.E. Georgia this year I’ll be needing several of those citronella candles. Dexter has clearly made you his. Be blessed.
Well that’s why those dam coils wouldn’t stand up for me!! Thanks for showing me how to use them. & Thx for sharing where I can buy them too 😊
I agree with the torches and coils, also use a Pic solar torch, only good at night but it works well.
Although contraversial...fogging and insectide is by far and away the most effective. Yes it kills other benefical insects too.
noseeums is why memaw planted mint under the windows... you can plant citronella grass too
I expected a lot of Mosquitoes here in North Carolina. So far I have not seen any. We do have gants, They get in the house and they don't bite like they do in Nebraska.
My neighbor has a row of plants that look like geraniums that have a citronella scent and keep the bugs away from her porch. They might be worth a try?
We have lots of knots the hand waving is a must 👐👋🤗
Good to see ya 🙋♀️ haven’t been over for a visit in a while ... hope you and your pups are all doing good 🙏🏼
need ya here! stay a spell and catch up! CVK
Thanks Kevin - great ideas! Those planters are really nice!
luv my thermacell I have 2 i even use it in my rig for those noseeums that get thru the screens
I always thought you'd have the high desert breeze blowing the irritating ones away ....
Good backup set up to keep Dexter calm, maybe with time you could try it again and he'll sleep right thru it.Couldbe your own Redwood forest up there ( albeit with different trees) Sure was kind of your neighbor to bring you such pretty pot esp match the sunset or brighten up a winters day.Peaceful video.Thankyou
Spent a few years in Brunswick, Georgia. We had to have fine-meshed screens around our patios because of the gnats a couple of times a year. Miserable bugs for sure.
This past Friday I saw I can't say her name is weird but it's weedum and reap is there channel. And guess what they got them a Brooklyn mattress. They also will somewhere in Arizona is an agriculture acre they have several goats I mean they're in it for the milk. Two dogs because the coyotes can jump the block wall fence. Chickens and a few ducks yeah and fruit trees that's what you ought to think about fruit trees I think it took her 2 years so now she gets tree full of a fruits but your soul might be different and you can't do that. Oh well back to the video.😊
I put torch oil in my oil lamps work's good and light
❤ the love for your dogs is so heartwarming!! Thanks for sharing bug strategy’s.
Hi Kevin! 🤗 As always...enjoyed hearing the babies talking again! God bless & keep you!
Growing up in Fl when they had drive ins They gave you one to put on your car window to keep the mosquitoes out
I love the thermacell also I had a coil lit in all the proper ways and it burst into flames.
I keep a box fan on my porch. Don't have any problems with gnats or skeeters.
I haven’t tried it yet but I keep meaning to, Amazon has powdered incense burner kits for sale.
With all those small pieces of left over coils, I thought I could crush them to powder and try to burn them like they do in those kits.
Or that could just be the hoarder in me coming out.
Texas too
Citronella has candles too. I used them when I lived in Tennessee. There was a river in town and we got mosquitoes that drove me crazy. They worked really well. Take care of yourself and the woof pack.
Hitting the road in my Camper Van....today is the first day of my new adventures....
Enjoyed this video. Your little WoofPack has the right idea. I don't like to be in hot weather either. Lots of bugs in eastern North Carolina where I grew up. I live in the midwest now. They're not terrible here like the south.
You can try some sage, and camphor, both work. Nice to have a great gathering spot. If what you have is working, that's a good thing. Nice of Carolyn to get the pots, and dirt. Pots are pretty. Those pups are living the good life. 🙂👍
I really need to visiting you for few days, sitting outside and catching up everything that we been missing. Sorry about your mom. No one around here tell me . I watched your video about her😢 love you son.
Thanks Pete
Here in Colorado the moths are here and the wasps have come out early
Loved the video!
Beautiful bracelet!
I have used fabric softener sheets seem to work🤗👋
🐝 and horse flies here!! 😮
Have a great week! 🙂🐶🐶🐶🐶
Well, bless your heart, Kevin. It's always good to see you. Thanks for the advice with nats.😊
A high-velocity fan aimed at you will keep the bugs off of you. I have regular run-of-the-mill ceiling fans over the covered patio that keep skeeters and flies at bay.
God Bless you Kevin and your fur babies.
God bless, Kevin. Russ from Mesa, AZ.
old Canadian camping trick..smudge pots..metal buckets with a fire and grass that smolders and sends out a lot of smoke
Pretty pots!
Yes those green tip matches are the worst! We use a charcoal grill and these were such a pain to light.
I've heard that you can toss a few rosemary sprigs onto your fire pit and the smell of burning rosemary will keep the bugs away.
Dexter is a doll baby. Love him!
Great tips. Have a great Sunday. God is absolutely good!
It seems there's nowhere to go on this Earth where you can be free from biting/stinging bugs and yet still be in a warm climate. 😔
Broken Skeeter coil ? ... a couple of galvanized roofing nails (with a large head) turned upside down in the clay pot will hold the broken coil off the bottom of the pot.
So good to see sweet little sassy matriarch Martini Lyn ❤Tuck Tuck ❤always thinking with the clever questions and comments, Baby Mae Mae ❤easygoing goes along with whatever follows the crowd and Dexter ❤smart little guy working hard to figure things out. So good to see your doing what you can to make their lives comfortable for your pups❤!Sweet lady Caroline helping with making your porch and the rest of the landscape well manicured. And the rest of your kind hearted friends that are there for you. Those kind of friends are hard to come by, cherish them. And Jesus Christ first and foremost. God bless you all.
Thank you for the video regarding biting bugs. When I lived in Charleston, SC, they were bad. Especially the no see ums. When my children were young and playing sports some parents would bring dryer sheets and Skin so Soft a product made by Avon. It was oily and the bugs stuck to it before they could bite. Everyone smelled like Skin so Soft. 😂 I use the green coils that you showed in the video. I think the same company makes these long green sticks that you stick in the ground.
Hey Kevin, thanks for some ideas for our patio. Our son in law is putting in a nice hot tub...so we are going to need some flying bug repellent since we will spend more time out there. Have a blessed day. LUCRETIA 🎉
Have fun!
They sell at home depot. Gas power torches with citronella. With glue filtration traps That work really well at keeping bugs. Away this includes G n a t s And of course flies Including mosquitoes. The units go for a little over $200. The glue traps in citronella oil. Will cost you another sixty Dollars up to a $100. dollars Although pricey very effective especially for get together's outside
Just finished watching. Thanks for martini video appearance.
you can use the old oil lamps with that same mosquito repellant oil with the advantage of giving you light
Good to know.😊
the only mosquito repellant that I've seen work is the one from Home Depot those green coils in the clay pot as long as there is no wind, and i use them old oil lamps with the mosquito oil.
