I assume you mean you stayed upwind.


Oh yeah...indeed...

As an update, the roses stayed clean from JBs for at least 3 or 4
days. Then they started coming back a little at a time. I've been
picking them off pretty easily. Today was the first day that they are
been swarming a bit (but not as bad as before).

So, I've hit the bushes with more Sevin. We'll see how this goes...
