Congrats!
Hello everyone! I hate to be negative, but despite my excitement about the new year beginning soon, I find myself dreading (just a tad of dread...
We get them every summer: the best thing I've found is the Hot Shot (I think that's the brand) no pest strip. It's a white plastic frame that...

Thanks so much, everyone. Your enthusiasm helped me decide to put it on TpT, ha ha.
That's great! You know . . . that's a good assignment for students, too, ha ha.
