When I bought his house in the fall of 2000, and a warm day occurred, the entire south side of the house was covered with Box Elder bugs just like the pictured ones. millions and millions of them. And they were getting into the house. I found water and Palmolive, (probably Dawn also)dish washing liquid kills them, a good squirt into a gallon of water. Covers their air breathing holes in their abdomen and suffocates them. I have been fighting them every spring and fall ever since, and seem to be gaining on them. Did some research a coupla years ago, and they are attracted to the female Box Elder tree, the one with the spinners like helicopters that have a seed in them. We had a nature nazi living next store, and she would not cut ANY trees, but they moved last early summer, and the new people are normal. The new guy cut down 13 female box elder trees on his 2 acres last early fall, and gave me all the wood I wanted.I also cut down 3 females, and this year (fall), we have both seen a massive reduction in the bugs.

After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
