Default pest control

Soak a pack of unfiltered cigarettes in a quart Mason jar of water for a few
days. Leave it out in the sun with the lid on loosely. WEAR GLOVES and
strain the junk out. Dilute this about ten to one and spray on the plants
and worms. Meanwhile, pick the critters of and pinch them. Yucky, but . . .
If you have curious mocking birds in the area, crop the worms into a
stainless steel bowl with steep sides and let the birds lunch on them.
