Can you please help me identify these eggs? They are the size of a small pea. They are in an corner by the door if an old farmhouse.

Could someone please identify the bug below I found in my condo in St Paul? I know the photo is not perfect, but I hope it is detailed enough. It is a bit bigger than 1/8 of an inch. It was dead at the time I found it. Our pest control company said it was a stink bug, I don't think so and it looks very similar to a bed bug and I would like a second opinion, if someone is willing to give me one! Kindest regards,

When I moved here to northern Todd county (nearly 40 years ago) my neighbor warned me that I would not be able to grow beets in my garden, She said despite successfully growing them in her previous garden only a few miles away, they would not grow here. I planted them anyway, and they germinated normally, but when the first true leaves started developing, they quickly turned purple, stopped growing, and fairly soon withered and died. I have occasionally tried making a test planting over the years, but still no real success, with mostly the same results of turning purple and dying young. I began with basically pure sand whose main "crop" was sand burrs. Over the years I have improved it, adding cattle manure until I now have a very productive garden . . . but one that will still NOT grow beets. Is there some trace mineral or other remedy you think might help?

I have a problem with raccoons digging up my back yard for bugs. My understanding is that they are going after grubs. I would like to put down grub control but also have bird feeders in my back yard. Is there any safe grub control that will not hurt birds? Also have a rhododendron with brown spot on leaves and part of the bush appears to be dying. If i use an antifungal on the bush will the affected parts come back?
