LFA - again

[Lin W]

I'm in upper HPP. I fight LFA daily. They are everywhere, kitchen, livingroom, lanai, carport, cat and dog food and water, the entire lot both on the ground and in the trees. Yesterday I found a column marching round and round in the bathtub ... why? I am chemically sensitive, don't want to use poisons if I don't absolutely have to, but I'm getting pretty sick of being bitten constantly. I understand there are biological treatments that take several months but assure complete eradication. What are they? How expensive? Is there anyone here who treats with them? I'm about ready to take a home equity loan to fight LFA and albizia, it's come to that. But, if the neighbors don't treat, and the vacant lots aren't treated, what is my chance of longterm success? If there isn't some doable solution, I'm going to have to seriously think of leaving ... don't want to, but it's down to them or me.





I don't know how I got over the hill without getting to the top.
