they have dried out and hurt? I have read sulphate of ammonia works BEFORE the bindis dry out and become spikey and hurt but isnt there ANYTHING to get rid of the horrible things once they are doing their worst? My yard is covered in them now and I dont even know what they look like before they are brown and spikey and its too late now. My poor cat is finding it hard to walk in our yard because of the damned things and to be honest, so am I when I have sandels on.
