For those of you going out to buy your live Christmas tree
this week, allow this Floridian to offer a tip to eliminate any unwanted
"guests" that might try to ride into your home.
First, find a pool. If you have one, great, if not, see if a
neighbor or friend might let you use theirs. Leave your tree in its netted
sheath, and drop into the pool. Leave it there for at least a day. This will
run any ants, spiders, roaches, lizards, mice, etc from your tree and keep them from
getting into your home. Bonus point: the tree gets super-hydrated, helping
preserve its needles longer.
Wishing you a Merry (Florida) Christmas!
