Dining Ducks Multiply

I talked to Patrick, the owner of Applied Organics, about the growing population of ducks dining on the corn gluten weed seed killer that he spread on our lawn last month. He was mortified, ours was the first lake property he has serviced and has never had this problem before. The corn gluten came in small pellets, just perfect for waterfowl to nibble. On his next visit Patrick assured me he would reapply new gluten, and this time use the powdered version. Meanwhile, I’m spending a lot of time cleaning poop off of the dock.
