It was flying so low over Lake Avenue while I was cutting the grass behind our day lilies that it almost spooked me.

It was the helicopter spraying for gypsy moths.

I decided it was time to go inside and shut the bedroom windows.

Hard to tell what the residue would be.

Crystal Lake’s warning signs were up first.

I saw Lakewood’s next.

On the way back from swim practice at McHenry’s West High School pool, I saw this one on Walkup at Crystal Springs Road.

You will notice it warns of May spraying.

I guess this June day was the first one without rain or a wind to high to allow for effective spraying.
