    Snot Alert

    NEW ZEALAND
    HAS YOU COVERED
    One More Weapon
    two threats with one bullet
    -------
    .. A couple of year's ago we mentioned that the Kiwi's were doing battle with Didymosphenia geminata - "Didymo" or "Rock Snot," for short. We've been watching the developments and now Uncle Jack's Didymo Killer is a proven winner for killing the snot.
    .. It's also effective for whirling disease. Pretty good stuff. It may even save those who prefer felt soles on waders from having to mortgage the farm to get "clean" rubber soles.
    .. Starting in 2006, (NIWA Letter,) and in 2007, (USFWS note,) and lately, (Moldy Chum,) the news is getting out.
    .. It's worth the time to read about Uncle Jack's Didymo Killer and decide if you'd like to spread the word.
    .. You can carry a spray bottle with you. You can donate a tub of it to your neighborhood feather merchant. You can provide 'stream-side squirt service.' The possibilities are endless.
    .. The news is about 4 years old, the alert is as current as today's weather.
