Get 'no spraying' signs and keep them up

I suggest the Bonner County Weed Control post their noxious weed control schedule in the Daily Bee and update it regularly.

I was fooled last year and took my signs down early. Much to my surprise here comes the spray truck and I did not see it until too late. Following is the casualty list:

Non-native items: Three forsythia bushes, part of a lilac bush, one apple tree, part of another apple tree.

Native items: Part of a beautiful pussy willow, part of an elderberry (the berries are harvested by many later in the year), 95 feet of brush along a roadside stream with unknown numbers of fish.

Get your signs from the county and leave them up.
