On our four Texas Hill Country acres, I tell visitors that, as a one-man operation, I don’t have time or energy for pests, so I don’t have any. The truth is that I’m absolutely amazed at the absence of pests. For now, I’m attributing this phenomena to a multi-year focus on diversity, with emphasis on natives. For example, I don’t think that there is any place on the property where a species is repeated within ten feet, except for patches of native perennials. Hope it lasts! E. E.
