Wet & muggy,
but average
Spate of muggy weather may be
uncomfortable, not all that out-of-the
ordinary according to weather data
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Junes wet and muggy weather onslaught
may have left area residents thinking 2021s been a
different kind of weather year, but Garnett Industrial
Airport Manager Pat Schettler said statistically
speaking, its really been pretty average.
This year is actually pretty normal, Schettler
said last week as the June weather recording books
were closed at the airport. Maybe a little higher
temps, but no records.
Schettler said the average high temp last month
was 86.4 degrees and the average low 66.7.
I went back 12 years and the highest/lowest average high was 89.2 in 2020 and 81.7 in 2014, he said.
The highest/lowest average low was 68.8 in 2010 and
62.8 in 2019.
Schettler said the highest temperature in that time
period was 103 degrees in 2012 and 45 in 2013.
As far as rainfall, this year is on the higher side at
6.35 inches. The 12 year rainfall high was 7.74 inches
(2010) and lowest was 1.60 inch (2012).
Anderson County and nearby counties were water
logged in May according to the Kansas Climatology
Office at Kansas State University, when a heavy rain
pattern poured 8.23 inches on the county and notched
2.83 inches over Mays average of 5.4 inches. Franklin
County was the wettest in the region with 9.36 inches
in May, 4.16 over its average 5.2 for the month.

Skeeters follow rains
into summertime fun
City talks spraying; best
way to prevent bugs is to
dump standing water
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT With lots of summer
rain oftentimes comes lots of mosquitoes and Anderson Countys
had its fair share of rain lately.
Because they nest in standing
water, recent rains in particular
have meant lots of opportunity for
a burgeoning population of skeeters in the area. Garnett Mayor
Jody Cole told city commissioners at a recent
city meeting shed
been approached
by some constituents who
were tired
of
being
hemoglobin
targets for the
nasty critters, and wondered if
the city could look into chemical fogging for the pests as is done in
some other communities.
Its something that was brought
up, so I told them we would look into
it, Cole said.
The discussion took place as
the Kansas Department of Health
& Environment urged Kansans
to take preventive measures last
week against mosquito bites over
the July 4th holiday. KDHE said
five of six regions in Kansas are
now at the High risk level for West
Nile virus. Mosquito surveillance
in Reno, Sedgwick, and Shawnee
counties has shown an increase in
Culexmosquitoes which can spread
West Nile virus and other viruses
that can affect humans and horses.
This species of mosquitoes is most
active at dawn and dusk.
City clerk Travis Wilson gave a
handful of reports from area cities hed contacted about their mosquito spraying programs. Spraying
machines in towns that did their
own spraying typically ran between
$9,000 and $13,000, Wilson said, with
chemical product running about $78
per gallon. He said as an example the
City of Columbus sprayed about 2-4
times per month, a project
that takes about five
hours per spraying. Their costs ran
abou $8,000-$13,000
per summer, Wilson said,
and those
costs did
n o t
include
labor or
overtime
costs for city staff.
Commissioner Greg Gwin said
he was interested in pursuing more
information but was concerned
about possible health issues from
spraying chemicals, and whether a
spraying program would have a significant impact on the problem.
They seem to say if the mosquitoes fly through the spray, it works,
Wilson said. If they dont, then it
doesnt.
Commissioners opted to seek
some additional information from

City budget talks reveal new openness law regarding tax increases
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Ongoing budget discussions among Garnett City
Commissioners and city staff are
proceeding under the reminder that
future tax increases will require specific notices of tax impact to city property owners.
City manager Chris Weiner told
commissioners at the commissions
late June meeting that the 2022 budget now under development would be
subject to a more advanced level of
notification if it raised more tax revenue than the previous year, according to the provisions of the Truth
In Taxation Act passed by the 2020
Kansas Legislature.
Weiner told commissioners future
city budgets would be subject to a
revenue neutral requirement
meaning if the budget raised more
money for the coming year, individual
taxpayers would have to be notified
of the dollar amount of the increase
and a public hearing held, then a
governing body vote on that specific
increase. Weiner warned there would
be certain notification costs the city
would have to incur if a tax increase
was adopted under that new law.
This year and next year the city
doesnt have to absorb any of those
costs, he told commissioners.
Garnetts adopted budget for 2021 is
just under $15 million, up about 16 percent from a little over $13 million in
the dozen years since 2010.
Governor Laura Kelly vetoed a similar bill last year but the overwhelming majority votes in the House and
Senate may have been a factor in her
decision to sign the bill and avoid

a veto override. The Kansas House
passed the bill 120-3 with a few modifications to the Senate bill that passed
last January. Senators concurred
with the House bill by a 30-5 vote.
The Kansas Policy Institute, a conservative tax policy lobby group, said
the Kansas legislation was modeled
after others in Utah and Tennessee,

What are you doing
about your scars?
Sometimes God puts a subject back on my heart when
I have already addressed it.
Such is the case here. One
of the things that Satan uses
against us is our past. I have
scars and you have scars we
carry around with us. This
is why Jesus says in Matthew
11:28, Come to me, all you
who are weary and burdened
and I will give you rest. Part
of the weariness and burden
we carry about with us are
the emotional scars that can
be the result of bad decisions
or many other causes. Our
past scars cannot hurt us if we
have a relationship with Jesus
Christ. However if we choose
to hang onto these scars that
may have consequences which
may be more detrimental than
the original sin.
They can
make us feel dirty and unworthy, caused us to be depressed,
defile our spirit, destroy our
testimony and are a sin against
God.
Be advised if you choose to
hang on to your scars and you
have a personal relationship
with Jesus all or part of these
things can still control your
life. You will never achieve
victory in Jesus. Jesus has
forgiven you based on your
receiving him as your personal
Savior. Even more grievous
than this is the fact you will
are holding yourself to a higher
standard than God does. Do
not fall into this trap. One of
the most heartfelt passages in
scripture is Psalm 51. This
is Davids confession after his
adulterous relationship with
Bathsheba. All of the things
that I mentioned are at work
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
in Davids life. He says, My
transgressions are always
before me, cleanse me, do not
cast me from your presence,
save me from blood guilt. All
this from a man who Samuel
the prophet calls a man after
Gods own heart.
When we choose to let our
past rule us in spite of our
relationship with Jesus Christ
I believe we break Gods heart.
So what shall we do to control our feelings? God says
to Isaiah the prophet concerning the people, Come now let
us reason together, says the
LORD. Though your sins are
like scarlet, they shall be white
as snow; though they are red
as crimson, they shall be like
wool. Take that verse and
commit it to memory knowing
you have been forgiven by a
loving God who is willing to
cast your past into the ocean
and remember it no more.
That is a big step in achieving the rest Jesus promises in
Matthew 11.
Ministry on the
Holiness of God.

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW Tuesday, July 6, 2021
OPINION
Creatively holding their ground
In helping numerous rural communities
throughout Kansas mount their defense against
the invasion of wind farms, my partners and I
used to pose the rhetorical question Why dont
you see any wind farms in Johnson County?
The answer? Because Johnson County has a
way of pushing its eyesores off to its rural neighbors.
Now some folks up in Miami County have
learned an appreciation for having their beautiful rural environs spoiled by industrial splatter
and theyre willing to go so far as to form a new
city in northern Miami County to stop it.
Theyre hoping to charter the city of Golden
and set up their own city boundaries and government in order to protect themselves from
the sprawl of southwestern Johnson Countys
Logistics
Park intermodal facility. Earlier
this year the
Edgerton
City Council
approved
the rezoning
of 700 acres
of
rural
land
into
industrial
use, so they
can
make
ready for the
continued
expansion
of the intermodal which
needs land
lots of land
with the
buildings and roads and pavement it entails.
Thats not what the prospective residents of
Golden had in mind when they took up residence outside the urban ring of Kansas City, so
theyre taking big steps to put an end to it.
Its the classic clash of American cultures
folks who want to sit on their porch and enjoy
a sunset over a field of corn or soybeans running headlong into urbanites and government
officials who want development and bigger tax
bases and jobs. Every urban area has the boundary between the two, and cities with a constant
appetite for annexation are often responsible for
pushing that borderline against the neighbors.
Invasion isnt too strong a word to use. Those
of us who live in rural areas chose those locales
specifically for the anti-urban amenities they
offer. Certainly its a matter of taste; if every-
Certainly its a
matter of taste;
if everybody

town.
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
body wanted a city vista, everyone would live
in town. But when the interests of those homeowners clash with policies to expand urban
facilities, rural landowners have learned theres
hardly any room to compromise; and even if you
do, the threat never really goes away.
Rural residents in Kansas whove fought
wind farm developments over the past decade of
their tax incentive-fueled cancerous spread can
sympathize. Peaceful rural scenes all over the
state have been marred by the industrial ugliness of these green energy producers, and the
affront is compounded by the fact that those tens
of millions of dollars in machinery and facilities
pay not a dime in local property taxes.
The downside is that the creativity which
may lead to the charter of Golden wont work
in most cases in rural Kansas where residents
are combating turbine farms. Thats because
wind developers target counties that dont have
existing rural zoning in place or at least have
loose restrictions that oftentimes dont address
turbine field developments.
That lack of protection for the residents
allows the slick wind salesmen to massage county commissioners with wild tales of economic
development promises, money for lease signers
and Payments In Lieu of Taxes the petty
bribes promised to local government intended
to replace the millions they would otherwise get
in property tax revenues if turbine fields were
taxed like other power plants. Residents whose
counties dont have an existing zoning plan are
sitting ducks.
But the illustration is clear when its focused
on another example. People whove chosen to
live in the country for its innate rural value
have a right to fight back when somebody
intermodal or wind farms try to take it. ###

Kansas big government costs us big money
Kansas has some of the highest property
taxes in the nation, largely because we are
massively over-governed.
Kansas has 1,993 general purpose governments cities, counties, and townships serving about 2.9 million people. That works out to
1,461 residents per government entity, whereas the national average is 8,448 per entity, and
thats the third-worst rate in the country.
Data for the number of employees and units
of government comes from the U.S. Census
Bureau and is published for each state in KPIs
2021 Green Book.
For perspective, there would be 1,648 fewer
cities, counties, and townships at the national
average of people per entity. Heres another
fun way to think of it: Kansas has almost
six times the number of cities, counties, and
townships than the national average on a
per-capita basis. Kansas is ranked #48 among
the states, with only North Dakota and South
Dakota being worse.
Having a lot more cities, counties, and
townships means there are also many more
local government employees than the national average 35% more to be exact. In fact,
there would be 38,000 fewer local government
employees here if Kansas local governments
were staffed at the national average of employees per capita.
Kansas is the second-worst state for local
KANSAS COMMENTARY
DAVE TRABERT, KANSAS POLICY INSTITUTE
government employees per capita (Wyoming
is the worst).
We also have excess state government
employees per capita. Kansas has 37% more
than the national average on this measurement and is ranked #38.
With combined state and local government
employment, Kansas is #48 in the nation; only
Alaska and Wyoming are worse.
Nebraska is almost as bad ranked #47
but every other state in the region has much
lower levels of government employees per
capita.
By population we have an excessive number of school districts in Kansas.
We have an average of 1,740 students per
district based on Census data for headcount
enrollment less than half the national average of 3,769 students per district. At the national average, Kansas would have 132 school
districts thats 154 fewer school districts.
Keep in mind, this doesnt mean fewer school
buildings, students, or teachers. It would
mean fewer administrators, less overhead,
and streamlined operations.
Some people try to excuse Kansas being
massively over-governed on geography, but
that theory is not supported by the facts. Some
states have always had one school district per
county. Hawaii has one district for the entire
state.
Every state with more land mass than
Kansas has fewer general purpose governments than Kansas (Alaska, Texas, California,
Montana, New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada,
Colorado, Wyoming, Oregon, Idaho, and Utah).
And the Golden Rule of government spending applies: the more government, the more
government employees, the higher the property taxes.
Kansas has some of the highest effective
property tax rates in the nation, and a lot
of that is because Kansas is so massively
over-governed. For example, if the average
all-in cost (pay plus benefits) is $50,000 for the

Trump decision on 2024 will set Republican stage
Sometime in 2023, Donald Trump will presumably make the most momentous decision
by a single person affecting the fate of the
Republican Party in decades.
He will decide whether to run for president
again, and that will determine whos the frontrunner (Trump, if hes a go) and the contours
of the race.
If Trump runs, he will, one assumes, blot
out the sun. Everything will be about him — his
record, his pronouncements, his animosities.
Much of the conservative mass media will get
on board, while the mainstream media — inadvertently aiding him, yet again — will be even
more intensely hostile.
The choice between this and a more normal nomination battle is Trumps alone.
Perhaps not since Dwight Eisenhower
turned aside Harry Trumans entreaties to
run for president as a Democrat and threw
his hat in the ring as a Republican has someone had such yea or nay influence over the
nations politics.
Trumps continued sway has been a boon
to his most hardcore cadre, but it is a problem
for Trumpism, at least if that term is to mean
anything more than personal loyalty to him.
In particular, his staying power risks overshadowing and distorting the development of
the populist wing of the party, which should be
about more than Stop the Steal and adherence to one man, even if that man has defied
political gravity.
Trump lost last November and contributed
more than his share to the Georgia Senate

losses that have added trillions of dollars to
what Joe Biden can plausibly spend.
He no longer has any formal power, whereas six months ago he could move aircraft carrier groups.
Hes off social media and is not nearly as
omnipresent on traditional media as when he
was holding impromptu press conferences on
his way to Marine One.
And yet, his grip on the party has barely
loosened, if at all.
Why?
Most important, he avoided the stigma of a
loser by falsely claiming he really won.
He connected with his voters at a cultural
level deeper than any of his policies, creating
an enduring bond.
His voters still think hes the only one who
truly gets the threat from the left, and the only
one willing to fight with the requisite ferocity.
Finally, they think Trump is being persecuted
by social media companies and worry they
could be next.
The lesson of the defenestration of Liz
Cheney is that you cant run headlong into
these sentiments and expect to survive in leadership.
Mitch McConnell, who has made his disdain for Trump clear, has taken the more
prudent course of declining to elaborate on his
well-known views, and isnt going anywhere.
But theres no doubt that what it means to be
a populist in the Trump mode is overly determined by Trump himself.
Until recently, Elise Stefanik was a moderate Republican from New York state. She
became the alternative to Cheney for the partys populists by toeing the line on Stop the
Steal, an issue that isnt liberal, conservative
or populist, but pure Trump.
The Trump effect is stark in Ohio
Republican politics. One would think Rep.
Anthony Gonzalez, a featured speaker last
year at an event of the populist policy shop
American Compass, would have more populist credibility than Senate primary candidate
Josh Mandel, a run-of-the-mill establishment
Republican. Yet Gonzalez voted to impeach
Trump, so Mandel is earning populist points
by calling him a traitor.
On the other hand, another likely Senate
candidate, J.D. Vance, who represents a sinSEE LOWRY ON PAGE 1B

If Joe Biden was my dog, Id have already dug a
hole for him.

HISTORY
Colony Christian Church Completing the First Mission
Brant McGhee gave the
Communion Meditation this
week over the term "Simple".
The word simple means that
something is easily understood or done, uncomplicated,
straight forward, easy, etc.
Acts 2:38 calls us to repent and
be baptized and we'll receive
the gift of the Holy Spirit.
Repenting can either be hard
or easy. What determines the
difference is our desire. We
need to learn to trust and cast
our cares on Jesus. And God
wants us to be happy. He has
done it all for us, he's done
the hard part. He already has
the outline figured out, all
we have to do is be obedient.
Believe ~ Trust ~ Follow
Pastor Chase Riebel gave
the sermon "Completing the
First Mission" over Acts 14.
When we spread the Good
News, we must keep 5 things
in mind: 1. Don't give up!, 2.
Look for Faith, 3. Don't get a
big head, 4. Don't be passive,
and 5. Don't hide the suffering.
When Paul and Barnabas were
spreading the Good News, the
Jews created a mob and ran
them out of town. But their
desire was to please God by
saving people. We need to
make sure that we are eternally-minded and renew our
spirits in Jesus every day. We
should look about us and see
faith in others and tap into it.
The suffering, bleeding lady
in Matthew 5 knew that if she
could just touch Jesus' robe,
she would be healed. Such
faith!!! But always give the
glory to God. We can only plant
the seed, God is the one who
will bring in the harvest, so we
must live humbly. And stand
in the gap for those who are
struggling. We must be assertive and not passive when it
comes to sharing Jesus with
others. Not necessarily aggressive, but assertive. (Ref: Acts
14; Galatians 2:16 & 6:9 & 17;
2 Corinthians 4:16-18 & 11:25;

increase the revenue-neutral
mill levy, they must notify citizens of their intent, hold a public hearing to accept input, and
then vote on the entire property tax increase they impose.
The new law also does away
with the so-called property
tax lid, which required public
approval to increase property
tax by more than inflation. The
lid was rendered almost meaningless, however, by a long list
of exemptions that allowed cities and counties to avoid the
public vote requirement. The
Truth in Taxation law has no
exemptions.
KPI said property taxes in
Kansas increased far more
than the rate of inflation over
the last 23 years. The average county increased property taxes by 180% between 1997
and 2020, while inflation was
53% and the population grew
by just 11%.
The big story in agriculture
today is how carbon is going
to be the next cash crop for
farmers and ranchers. There
are lots of headlines about how
changing agricultural practices can remove carbon dioxide
from the air and store it in the
soil.
While the science is sound,
farming practices are just one
component in the complex process of accumulation of carbon
in the soil. Precipitation, soil
type, carbon already present
and other variables all factor into just how much of the
element can be sequestered
underground.
Whats grabbing attention
is theres a nascent market
blooming where private companies are paying real money
to farmers and ranchers who
can document increasing
stores of carbon in their soils.
The idea is the ag producers
get some money for changing their practices while the
private companies count the
sequestered carbon against
their own emissions.
Theres a variety of reasons
why companies are at the forefront of creating this market,
but the primary driver is capitalism. Environmentally conscious customers and investors are demanding goods and
services that have less impact
on the land, air and water.
Companies are responding
to these signals by turning
to the original conservationists farmers and ranchers
to lessen the environmental
impact of modern life.
The public at large is just
now discovering what crop
and livestock growers have
understood for decades capitalism and conservation are
complimentary and not mutually exclusive. Farmers and
ranchers understand todays
investments in healthy soil,
pristine air and crystal-clear
water will pay dividends for
generations to come.
Farmers and ranchers today
are using technology and innovative practices to produce
more than ever while using
fewer resources. U.S. agriculture would have needed nearly
100 million more acres 30 years
ago to match todays production levels.
This is especially true of
livestock, which receive a lot
of attention for greenhouse
gases expelled yet contribute
just 4 percent and falling
of overall emissions. The dairy
industry is producing 48 percent more milk with per-unit
emissions down 26 percent.
Pork production has soared
80 percent while the per-unit
emissions have declined by 20
percent. Beef production is up
18 percent and emissions down
8 percent.
These efficiencies are
driven by simple economics.
Livestock emissions are falling because inputs like land
and feed are expensive, so producers have a natural incentive to make the most of their
resources. In short, market
forces are working as they
should, and U.S. agriculture
is lessening its environmental footprint in addition to offsetting the carbon emissions
from other industries.
For the most part, this has
happened in the absence of
government mandates, but
thats not to say government
policy doesnt have a role in
further reducing the green-
house gas emissions from agriculture.
No,
the
government
shouldnt tell farmers and
ranchers how to do their jobs,
but policy makers can certainly craft incentive-based programs to speed the adoption of
practices that enhance production and profitability on farms
and ranches.
Legislators also can reduce
regulatory barriers in state
and federal programs and fund
basic research that will help
farmers and ranchers achieve
greater efficiencies and further enhance the sustainability of their operations.
While the government
can help facilitate the pace
of adoption on proven practices, it should also recognize
what works in one field isnt
always the prescription for the
next. We have to trust farmers and ranchers, with decades
and generations of land management experience, know
the capacity of their ground.
Theyre proven innovators
and problem solvers in their
own right.
And theyre just as invested
as the rest of us in successful
and sustainable conservation
all while continuing to provide
a safe, affordable and ample
supply of food for a growing
population.

KART Racing: Fun for the whole family Local
State University
The weekend of July 10 & 11
the city of Garnett welcomes
the first Kart road race of the
season. The Garnett KART
Club, which has been hosting races since 1957, will once
again bring racing to the North
Lake Park road course. The
racing schedule runs from 8
a.m. to 4 p.m. both Saturday
and Sunday.
For over 60 years the
Garnett Karting Clubs have
been hosting both road and
sprint track races, including 3
national events. Each racing
event garners 100 to 125 entries
and involves people from many
states across the country.
KART racing is a great spectator sport. The North Lake
Park is unique in that it provides a free viewing site on the
south side of the road course
(near park entrance), or for
only $20 for adults, this pass
is good for two days and the
family can access the pit area
located on the east side of Lake
Garnett for a truly awesome
view of the road course. In the
pits you can watch the crews
work on their karts and learn
more about this motor sport,
and then watch the racers as
they sprint down the west side
straight-away exceeding 100
mph, maneuver the chicane
made of hay bales, cross the
dam and fight nose to tail for
position around tight corners
surrounding Lake Garnett.
The likes of Jamie McMurray
and Kevin Harvick, both well-

racing has sharpened the
skills of such racers as Mario
Andretti, Al Unser, Terry
LaBonte and Ricky Rudd.
The real heroes of this sport
for us, however, are the mem-
bers of the Garnett Kart Club,
who have given years of their
time and energy to improving
race facilities, promoting these
events and bringing hundreds
of racers and fans to our community. We invite you to show
your support and admiration of
their dedication by attending
the races on July 10-11.

Kuesers 2021 Richmond Free Fair parade marshals
The Richmond Free Fair is
pleased to honor Dean and Pat
Kueser as fair parade marshals
this year. They have welcomed
hundreds of folks to share
their shady front yard, as the
visitions enjoy the games and
parade, for a long time.
The Kuesers have lived in
the former Methodist Church
parsonage since 1973 and have
always been glad to have a yard
full of people on fair days.
Dean and Pat were married
in 1968 and lived in Illinois
while he was in the military.
This is the first and only house
they have owned, and they
have many happy memories
raising their family here, but
also of large crowds on fair
days.
They have visiting grandchildren at fair time too. Zoie,
14, and Eliza, 11, Prothe, whose
mom is Rhonda. The kids enter
4-H foods, clothing, and crafts
and enjoy the games and other
activities, often entering the
childrens parade.
They really enjoy the fair,
said Pat. They meet new kids
and have lots of fun.
Deans fair memories go
back many years to when he
used to help put up the tents
which were used before the
Community Building was built
in 1972, followed by other buildings over the years. He remembers Marsh, who owned the
rental tents, so do many others.
After
returning
to
Richmond, Dean worked at
Ottawa Truck for 25 years and
helped build those big rigs you
see parked on the north end of
Ottawa. Pat had a short walk to
her job at Patriots Bank for 35
years. Both retired in 2013.
Through the years Dean and
Pat have put alot of effort into
landscaping and making their
yard one of the best looking in
town, quite likely the top one,
but are quick to say they are
items, albums and neat things
to see, all looking good under
new LED lights and some other
improvements.
In May 2021, a plaque was
placed over the guest register
that honors the original 6 members of the Richmond Museum
Board, which was founded
in 2005. Those members are
Robert Cooper, Marvin Duvall,
Nadine Peine, Nadine Poss and
Phyllis Rossman.
These persons are now
deceased but their leadership
is still greatly appreciated.
Come to the Museum to
rest, cool off, and see some new
things! Its always free at the
Richmond Museum.

professional pest control
companies and to try to
spread the word to local residents to dump objects that
might have collected water
during recent rains to keep
from providing nesting
areas for the bugs.
Mosquitoes dont actually suck blood for food
adults feed mostly on
nectar, which makes them
important as pollinators
but females need blood
to lay healthy eggs. An
experts segment at thisoldhouse.com gives a number
of tips about controlling
mosquitoes, including:
dumping any outdoor
containers that might collect water and provide nesting areas;
if theyre in your house
at night, you can darken the
house and turn on a small
light theyll be attracted to
it and can be dispatched;
repellants with 30%50% DEET are effective. So
are citronella or lavender
candles;
mosquitoes dont fly
well in the wind, so turning
on a fan is a good method
for keeping them away;
bug zappers and mosquito traps also work, and
pools and ponds can be
treated with BTI, a naturally occurring bacterium
found in soil. It produces
toxins that target and kill
mosquito larvae. You can
spray it over ponds, flower
pots, and bird baths, and its
non-toxic to humans.
