It is already October, which is hard to believe. October is a great month for many things outdoors, and some slightly less fun things to encounter while outdoors.
Fall is my favorite season of the year. The weather is much more enjoyable, the trees turn fantastic colors, and football begins again. With all the fun of fall, however, comes the not so enjoyable entry of insects into our homes. Many household pests that we see most often in the fall coming into our homes for warmth and food are boxelder bugs, Asian multicolored ladybeetles, and spiders. Occasionally, we also find crickets, centipedes, millipedes, and some stink bugs.
Deciding on the correct price for your hay bales can be a challenging task for forage producers. The price of a bale of hay depends on several crucial factors, with bale weight and nutrient content standing out as the most significant. Additionally, the type of hay you are selling, whether it's alfalfa, corn stalk, or meadow grass, also determines its value.
