A new problem?

      According to a tradesman on the island, he working on a cottage that has a major infestation of carpenter ants.  He said that it may take most of the summer to clear them out.
      This is the first time that there has been a mention of this problem, according to this editor.

Poison Ivy Alert

     A few cottagers have come down with a poison ivy infection.  A well informed local resident says that poison ivy is definitely in Bancroft.  Thus, by extrapolation, it could be in this area.

    Respond to this posting if you have detected or been infected with poison ivy.
