Getting Rid of Ants With Two Common Household Foods.
Though you may not know it, both rice (can be minute rice minute rice) and cream of wheat will get rid of ants. What happens is, they take it back to their nest and when they eat it it expands and literally blows them up to the point of death. So basically it is death by rice or cream of wheat for ants. :) Remember to put it out on a dry day so it does not get wet and expand on its own least it will not work as well.

Windex will kill earwigs in your garden and house! And no I am not advertising or promoting Windex because any glass cleaner would do that contains ammonia including no name brands.I hate earwigs, dreadful bugs...If you find the white ones kill them immediately for they are the queens.

Being In The Spotlight, The Photography Creations Of Ashley Watson
Recently I spoke of hightlighting the work of those who gave me some really good writing suggestions and I am a woman of my word. Today I will be covering the photographer Ashley Watson also known as Lotash by his followers and I for one happen to be one of them for the brilliant, creative photos this man continously comes up with.
Because Ashley takes has two different sides of photography, I am going to be adding it here as well as Mystify The Mind, obviously I thought it appropriate to add his beautiful floral photography here and Mystify The Mind for some of his awesome creative works. Both sides equally as good and both sides continuing to get better as time progresses.
If you want a photo taken Ashley is the man to take it but if you want a creative piece of photography, Ashley is 100 percent the man you want to take it! Take a look at some of this phenominal work and you will see why. All copyright on the below photos belongs to Ashley Watson.

Ideas And Creation
Well so far from posting yesterdays piece, I have had two new ideas come my way and ideas that were very good ones if I do say so.
One was for my gardening site, Artistic Visions Gardening and another was for Mystify The Mind. One friend asked me to write about some of the gardens I designed and another was advice I had to new content writers.
Today I am going to set out to work on my gardening article, which is something that usually takes me a bit of time becuase like most things in my life, I like my writing to be perfect and I also take the time to choose the appropriate photos that go with my work. I did in fact take the time to write my article on the advice I have for new content writers which I only have yet to edit so with any luck I will be able to post that later today and if not at the latest,tomorrow morning.
Rather than publish these articles through publishing companies such as Factoidz, Wikinut and Triond, I am going to post them directly to my sites which I hope helps my sites as I have been doing a lot to them recently including marketing.
Also another idea I came up with last night was for the people who do make suggestions and that have a site they would like to display, I will post the link on my website Mystify The Mind unless of course it is gardening related which I will then post on Artistic Visions Gardening. I will do an individual post on them as well as a small review within the post it if they so wish. My first will be hightlighting the work of the photographer Lotash who takes some spectacular floral photography.
Thanks for reading everyone! Happy reading and writing!

What The Readers Want
I know this is along way off topic for Artistic Visions Gardening, however; I did post this to my site Mystify The Mind as well.
Recently, I have been doing a lot of thinking and it involves ideas for new articles to write and though I did come up with a lot of new ideas and actually completed a few of them and began writing some more, I was hit by a brain wave or more like bolt of lightening hitting me upside the head and I thought, "Why not ask my friends and fans what they would like to read about, why not ask them what type of article they would like to see me write about!"
The brainstorm among brainstorms, now there is a challenge among challenges as a writer and what a brilliant idea if I do say so, it's not really about what I want to write about, it is more about what others would like to see me write about and what others would like to read so with that in mind, I am definately willing to rise to the challenge, are you?
Let me know what you would like to see, it can be anything from an article to poetry to a short story. And for Artistic Visions Gardening what type of gardening article would you like to see?
To make it easy just email me or leave a comment. My email is: mystify@gmail.com
Cheers! I am looking forward to any and all comments.

How To Control Weeds, Insects And Diseases In Your Garden
There are three types of pests that can plague gardens: weeds, insects, and diseases. Management is absolutely essential when concerning one of these three types of pests. In this article I have written a description and some control methods to eradicate the problems including all natural home treatments and control methods.
A weed is any plant that grows where it is not wanted. Weeds are undesirable because they compete with garden plants for light, water, and nutrients, often depriving the desirable plants of what they need and sometimes even smothering them by wrapping themselves around the garden plant and choking them out. This type of plant can become.....
