Tell me you've *never once* used a pesticide to get rid of bugs around your
house. Then perhaps you can tell me how to keep out Palmetto bugs, crickets
and spiders without spraying pescides. Same thing goes for a good crop of
vegetables.

Fresh fruits and vegetables don't contain preservatives. Hopefully by the
time they get to the market they won't have been half eaten by bugs (or Bugs
Bunny), too.
