Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
It’s a beautiful project! My only concern is, you always hear that you should not Jane any standing water anywhere outdoors because it creates a great place for mosquitos. What do you think? Thank you
I’ve seen responses about mosquito repellant tabs. Would these be found at a garden center? And if birds should stop by for a quick drink, would those tabs be harmful to them?
