Washing up liquid can cause foaming, and you could need a lot of it to reduce the surface tension sufficiently.

The best answer is No More Bugs. It can be difficult to find, but if you use that then any wasp that settles on the water to drink will promptly drown.

Jim.... Spot on!....." foaming".... On your fountain? How big's your water feature? Rome EL Trevi? ..... A drip, (only) not attracting money? Villas

My water feature's not as big as it used to be.

We used to holiday on the island of Formentera, which is all naturist. Margaret once called me the biggest pr*ck on the beach. I thought she was flattering me, but it turned out to be an insult.

Nude beach

A couple with their young son decided to spend a day at a nude beach.

After an hour in the sun, the father went for a walk while the son played in the water.

After a while the boy came up to his mother and said,

"Mommy, I saw ladies with boobies a lot bigger than yours!"

The mother said,

"The bigger they are, the dumber they are."

So the boy went back to play.

Minutes later the boy returned and said,

"Mommy, I saw men with willies a lot bigger than Daddy's."

The mother said the same thing:

"The bigger they are, the dumber they are... "

So the boy went back to play.

Several minutes later the boy ran back to his mother and said,

"Mommy, I just saw Daddy talking to the dumbest lady I ever saw, and the more he talked, the dumber he got..."

Now Jim, & this is why, we met (maybe) at the north plaza San Francisco Javier, near where I lived!.

You had (a little more hair) and did´nt called yourself a "naturist" more like a hippy. & length wise, I think you´d been in the beach some earlier!

PD my hair´s still here!

Jim

I’m sure I saw something in Alcampo that you can put in the pool.

Arctic ice, but you need a little north. Here, in water (liquid), they will search & find.
