I am well aware of the wind conditions in kansas and other points across the prairie region. You need some weight or a combo of deeper sets and weight to keep your cover on your sets or you have exposed sets when you might not want them.

I am still undecided at this point. I enjoy the shows but it is a busy time for our control business. That and fuel costs are going to limit much of my travel this year as I am sure it will for many.

Maybe its the area im in and the type of dirt the ants use, but even after a hard rain I can scrape off the top inch of an ant hill and its dry underneath. Dont know why that is but I just use it.
