Holy hell. Had between four and eight moths per bucket today. I was thinking about putting some sort of net over the buckets. Like the kind you get onions in. Anyone else ever do anything like that?

Hope everyone is having a great season. Seems like thinks are on a downturn here in Ware. -John

Last year we used the plastic bag collection system and had bugs of all kinds in the sap. To get rid of the bugs, this year we switched to tubing into plastic 5 gallon buckets through a hole in the cover just big enough for the tubing. That has kept all the bugs out
