    Cha97Michelle - The troublemaker deleted me about 8 months ago. I thought it strange at the time (we have children in the same class) but she was going through a divorce and house move so I didn't give it much thought. She's told such damaging lies to save her own skin she obviously wasn't 2 faced enough to be that friendly. She deleted her FB account yesterday no doubt to save herself from the vitriol that is being directed at her.

    ANYONE FOR HHI at 10am?

    Do you think my ant killer spray will kill maggots? Or should I just use boiling water?
    yes and yes

    if it's the bin I fling in boiling water empty it then wash it out and let it dry - they smell so BAD and I am led to believe that the smell attracts MORE flies:o

    well another busy day in valliland.

    There was maggots on my path after I'd taken the bin round the fron for emptying. When it's been emptied I'll sling a load of boiling water in it and disinfectant. Then I'll spray it as well!

    Mumto5 - I'll join you a little late - just got back from dropping the kids off.
