Stay safe

I hope you don't get flooding.
I wouldn't be able to fit the thicker one in my machine. I rarely need any extra blankets, but I am well-padded

Oh no 🙁 That’s one thing we don’t really get at this house for some reason although we had them at our old house not far from here. Instead we tend to get several varieties of moths including bright pink ones and there has been the same moth with a large furry head on my outside sofa for 3 days now - also shudders 😐I get knocked down but I get up again (Chumbawamba, Tubthumping)2

I've had them somewhere in a wall between the bathroom and utility room last year and a few this year. I put down 4nt Cl3@ar bought off Amazon and it has seemed to work - do need to keep them away from animals though (not sure a cat would get into it, and I pushed it down the side of the washing machine too far for the dogs to reach).beanielou said:It seems I have ants in the conservatory.
