Up in here in michigan we know how to grow our sunflower's/ladies.
We leave our rattlesnakes for target practice.
 
What type of sunflower is that? I can only imagine the dove shoot I could have with a bushogged field of those.
 
Spooky ....

Oh, but yellow jackets must love or hate me. When I do get around them, they like to snuggle up against me, lot's of them! The last time, which thankfully was some 20 years ago, 21 snuggled real close to me. That put me down for the day.

as a person that has to deal with lots of back and neck pain I welcome a good sting from bees hornets and wasp. when I get stung sure it itches for a few minutes or two but within an hour I am totally pain free and it tast all day til I wake up the next morning.i don't know what it is about them but if your not allergic to them and you have any kind of cronic pain you should try a bee sting just to see if it will help you.after I noticed that the sting was killing my pain I done a internet search and it turns out people pay good money just to go to a bee farmer and let them put a bee on the area where they are hurting for pain relief.it's good to know that if something ever happened where we have a colaps of government and there is no way to get my pain meds I can always just turn to wasp and bees for relief.

Very interesting, but until the apocolipse comes I think I'll stick to my over the counter arthritis medications. But it's always great to have a backup plan. Just hope the bees don't turn into zombies too.
 
How about willow bark instead of a bee sting. Doesn't hurt...

http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-suppl...edientId=955&activeIngredientName=WILLOW BARK

Willow bark is the bark from several varieties of the willow tree, including white willow or European willow, black willow or pussy willow, crack willow, purple willow, and others. The bark is used to make medicine.

Willow bark acts a lot like aspirin, so it is used for pain, including headache, muscle pain, menstrual cramps, rheumatoid arthritis (RA), osteoarthritis, gout, and a disease of the spine called ankylosing spondylitis.

Willow bark’s pain relieving potential has been recognized throughout history. Willow bark was commonly used during the time of Hippocrates, when people were advised to chew on the bark to relieve pain and fever.

Willow bark is also used for fever, the common cold, flu, and weight loss.

Salicin, the active ingredient in willow bark, seems to have contributed to the death of the composer, Ludwig von Beethoven. Apparently, Beethoven ingested large amounts of salicin before he died. His autopsy report is the first recorded case of a particular type of kidney damage that can be caused by salicin.


How does it work?

Willow bark contains a chemical called salicin that is similar to aspirin.

my grandpaw said it was always good for pains in the ass he told me that when ever he would get a pain in the ass he would go outside and grab a switch off the good ole willow tree and just about as soon as he would get the switch off the tree all his pains in the ass would stop.lmao it also brings a calm and quiet atmosphere to any noise house hold.

Mom would hand you the paring knife and send you out to the forsythia bush to cut your own. If you cut a puny one that broke you went out again. Did not hurt any of us either.
