Re: Bugs begone!

Misc.

I had those little stinkers in my pantry and no amount of freezing, containing, wailing, etc. could get rid of them. A friend told me to place a stick of spearmint gum in the corner of each shelf. Not only did it leave things minty fresh, but got rid of the bugs. Anyone know of the safety of boric acid around food? You can use it as an eyewash and it kills bugs, but around food?????????????
