POLICE LOGS By Bobie Hughes This last week I re- ceived a phone call at the Sacramento River Dis- covery Center asking for some help on two topics. One was fairly easy and the other took a little re- search. Since we are just starting into the spring planting season I thought I would share my research on plants that help repel insects. I found some of the in- formation from Red Bluff's skin doctor Derrick Adams in the Sunday March 20 Redding Record Search- light. My takeaway from reading the article is there is a lot of research that still needs to be done to help guide consumers in this field. Citronella and DEET have been on the market for a number of years. Are they safe for people and animals? Can we stand the smell or does it have a negative influence on our chemistry. Here are some suggestions of things you might plant this spring. This year will the first in several, thanks to the drought, that we will have to worry more about mos- quitoes. Of course the best thing to do is to remove breeding grounds — places where there is standing water. In my yard I found the fountain had filled up again and was just sitting with 8 inches of rain water that came down a week or so ago. It had to go. I discovered some over- turned lids from garbage cans; pots with no drain- age holes, glasses and cans and all manner of sources for standing wa- ter. The garden and lawn got a good watering. The fountain had some bleach added to the water to make it less attractive. It should help keep the mos- quitoes away while not harming the neighborhood cats and dogs. I am not going to men- tion the list of repelling plants that are harmful to pets. I will focus on the positive plants that will discourage mosquitoes, flies, gnats and others and some can even be used in combination to create your own insect repellant. Now if you live in an apartment and cannot grow some of these then my personal recommendation is for non-DEET products. My personal historic product is the Avon Skin So Soft Bug Guard that contains Picaridin and mineral oil, the other one that sounded very interesting is Cutter's Lemon Eucalyptus Insect Repellent. Here is a list of plants that will work in Tehama and Shasta counties gar- dens and many can be used in cooking as well as making up your own repel- lant spray. Rosemary (Ros- marinus officinalis); Basil (Ocimum basilicum); Lav- ender (Lavandula); Lemon Grass (Cymbopogum ci- tratus); Mint (Mentha); Lemon balm (Melissa of- ficinalis; Marigolds (Tag- etes). More information about these and other plants are available on line by plant name or use "Plants that repel (name your insect) in your gar- den" as a Google search. Some Lavender and Rosemary plants will be available for sale at the Sacramento River Dis- covery Center's Spring- fest Plant sale, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., April 23 in the SRDC parking lot. There will be many California plants that are adapted for this area, available for pur- chase. The Discovery Gar- den is open for visiting from 6 a.m. until 10 p.m. at 1000 Sale Lane within the Mendocino National Forest's Red Bluff Recre- ation Area. The Red Bluff Garden Club Plant Sale is from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 13-14 at Union Hall, 12889 Baker Road with a wide variety of offerings.

RED BLUFF GARDEN CLUB Ideas to help keep you and your pets free of insects The Tehama County Cattlewomen is pleased to announce that it is offer- ing at least two scholar- ships, each in the amount of $2,000, to support stu- dents and their families who are engaged in the ag- ricultural industry in gen- eral, and specifically the cattle industry. The scholarships are both for current college students.

The members of the Scholarship Committee select the scholarship win- ners based on the quality of an interview with the student and the student's autobiography, financial need, understanding and potential contribution to agriculture, understand- ing of the cattle industry and grade point average. Past scholarship win- ners are encouraged to ap- ply again as long as they are eligible.
