  3. FYI, Asian needle ants (Brachyponera chinensis) are in the Philadelphia area. Their painful sting can induce anaphylaxis, so be careful. If you find them please submit pic to iNaturalist so Michael Skvarla (Penn State) can come collect samples for confirmation. #ants #stinging #stinger #inaturalist #invasive #insects #anaphylaxis #delco #philadelphia #pennsylvania #hymenoptera share.inquirer.com/OTb0j7

  4. Not sure how it happened but apparently this truck flipped onto its side, spilling a load of trash onto the street. Was a slow news day locally so two helicopters were overhead filming. #swarthmore #trash #accident #truck #delco

  5. I inspected all the containers that accumulated water during last week's steady rain. Every single one had a thriving population of mosquito larvae. I wish our town sent out regular reminders to residents to dump stagnant water. Would make a huge difference. #mosquitoes #insects #swarthmore #delco #pennsylvania #rain #water #aedes

  6. We had so much rain yesterday that water was jetting up from the basement floor in fountains at multiple locations. Yea, that's not good. Concrete repairs are on my to-do list. As is checking gutters. #swarthmore #delco #pennsylvania #rain #flooding #weather #basement #cats

  7. I visited my garden yesterday and several wood stakes that I'd pounded into the ground were horizontal and in some cases several feet from their original positions. And two trellises were bent over 10° or so. I initially thought "vandalism" but it turns out the winds from yesterday's storm were clocked at 95-105 mph. Peas and fava beans took a hit from the hail, too. Took an hour to clean up. #weather #delco #swarthmore #garden #wind #allotment #gardening

  8. Every borough, town, and city should have a webpage that discourages residents from subscribing to those frequent (every 2-3 week) insecticide applications from companies like Mosquito Shield, Mosquito Joe, and Mosquito Squad. As an example, here's the blurb from Media, Pennsylvania, the town next to me. #mosquito #mosquitoes #spraying #pollinators #insects #pesticides #government #mediapa #delco #pennsylvania #pyrethroids mediaborough.com/446/Mosquito-

  9. This is Misty, an IPM staff member at a local nursery who often helps at checkout. She's an absolute loaf. #NewtownSquare #delco #caturday #cat #cats

  10. Hey #Pennsylvania!
    On election day the polls open at 7am and close at 8pm. If you're in line to vote at 8pm, STAY IN LINE and you will be allowed to vote.

  11. Found a perfect cat to adopt today only to discover that she'd been scooped up the day before after three months of waiting in a foster home. Sadness. But also: huge admiration for all those people who are fostering pets and who pen amazing profiles of their cares. Had no idea. #cats #delco #swarthmore #philadelphia

  12. Is it ever possible to get a restaurant to stop oversalting? There are several small places near me that I generally love but that consistently add about 2-3x more salt than is necessary, often creating dishes that are inedible. I'm not a fan of public floggings on Yelp and such, so am wondering whether there is wording I might send to the chef, privately, to get them to scale back salinity. My guess is that they are all supertasters and don't know it, so they don't realize they are physiologically wired to use far too much salt. Any tips on how to proceed? #food #salt #supertaster #tongue #taste #genetics #restaurant #dining #chef #cooking #delco #swarthmore #DelawareCounty

  13. We recently lost Danderfluff, our cat of 18 years and would like to reup to fill the void. Anyone in my area with leads on cute Persians? The one we had was a sealpoint tortoiseshell Himalayan. We adored her. #swarthmore #philadelphia #DelawareCounty #delco #cat #cats #caturday
