Re: Garden chemicals
Having Hens, ducks and a cat, plus growing our own veg, and a septic tank, we don't use chemicals
The most we use is a tiny bit of bleach once a week in the loos, too much upsets the balance in the tank
Our lawns are pure moss. So much that the lawn mower gets stuck every two steps but with, it looks green
Every couple of years we hire a scarifier and reseed but we are fighting a losing battle
Our veg plot is purely organic , horse poo and nettle feed. Means we have to net as well as pick off the caterpillars ( hens love them) and we may lose a complete crop, but better then then poisoning birds and furries, or even ourselves
