Don't use bug spray look for better solutions.  Neem oil would be better.  Bug spray kills everything including us.

That looks like a mealybug.  What's it doing on your wall I have no idea.  It generally attacks plants. They are very common on plants this time of year during the summer rainy season.

Us night owls are hardly even bothered by these rains.  We sleep in the wee hours of the morning to the sound of pouring rain and generally get up after all is said and done.

Well I guess to he honest we don't know with 100 % accuracy.  But they did spray glyphosate as a career together for many many years.  And they shockingly and mysteriously (to us at least) died in the same time frame from a rapidly forming cancer.  I think its pretty clear that it has the potential to give people cancer.  Look at the many law suits against the Round Up company from people who are getting cancer.  Exposing yourself to poison on a daily basis is not wise even if the company swears its safe.

I used to know a husband and wife team that sprayed for a living.  They both mysteriously died of cancer about at the same time 6 months or so apart in their early 60's.  Now we know it was most likely the glyphosate.

Rocks don't increase temperatures.  Covering everything in asphalt and cement is what raises temperatures.  That is one of the reasons our streets are cobblestoned, they are much cooler and allow proper water drainage apart from keeping traffic fairly slow through town.

His name didn't start with an S did it?

Yes I do.  Look at the thread that was immediately closed that was started this morning.  Hospital San Antonio Negative report.  Every couple of days a newbie nobody starts a thread maligning Hospital San Antonio.  The thread closed today, the 3 people posting were first timers with Spanish user names.  Yes I think one newer hospital is playing a dirty war with the other more established and preferred hospital. It is so obvious.

Lakeside7 you gave me a sad face emoji.  If you are truly on this forum daily you would have noticed a pattern by now and the rift between the two fairly new hospitals.  One appears to be playing dirty to get the gringo dollar.  I am sure most long timers on this forum have noticed this by now.

Could it be that another new hospital in the area is trying to malign and disparage the San Antonio Hospital?  Because recently tons of new unknown users have been popping up recently talking junk about Hospital San Antonio in several threads.  

Hey weren't you asking about a lime tree recently?  Why don't you just get that grafted lemon and lime tree they are selling at the vivero in San Antonio.  I don't think they get that big.  Anyways if you have to get a tree its always better to have one that produces something you like being either fruit, fragrance, or colorful flowers.

Zeb, you can use google and type in your search and put chapala.com after it.  And you will get better results.  When the search engine is frustrating me I turn to google.

The carnicería on the west side of Madero about a block north of Surtidor in Chapala Centro keeps a good supply. They open around 8:00 and parking is easy early in the day.

They have it and Mr. Bull across the street sells charcoal too.  Its always the burnt mesquite wood variety.

They are successfully planting trees  and small forests in certain parts of Greenland now thanks to climate change.  Look for videos on You Tube.

Interesting:  First I check the forum and then I read the news.

We got rain in Chapala last night.  I would say we have been getting a decent rain every other night.  Maybe it is less than last year.  But we are definitely getting rain.

I guess it depends on the well but in my 11 years here I have been told there is natural arsenic in the water here, how much I don't know exactly.

If you have the money I would get a UV for the showers and bathrooms and kitchen sink.  And get reverse osmosis for your drinking water.  The thing about UV is that it just nukes the pathogens and amoebas but does not filter or remove anything.  RO removes everything.  I was reading recently that UV is recommended more if you have lake or river water and RO is better for well water.  It gets out all the arsenic and heavy metals and god knows what else.  In Chapala the municipal water doesn't come from the lake but from wells high in arsenic.

Just ask the people who are installing your water purification system.  I have read on this forum in years past that many people end up going to Gdl for that. Good luck.

Are you looking to rent preferribly in Chapala or Ajijic?  There is also San Antonio and Jocotepec. 

Its going to be the new Electra store.

At most vegetable shops.

Oh it started, but recently it went temporarly on holiday.  Hopefully it will be back soon.

I saw a newish looking business lakeside of the carretera around Riberas I believe called the Croquetería.  I took it that they made homemade dog food.  But I could be wrong but Its worth checking out at least.

What Gringohombre has just died?   We have lost too many this year.
