Hi all,
I have been reading some new studies about Stevia and its capability to kill fruit flies. I read that it they are investigating how to turn it into an insecticide. In particular the Truvia brand was mentioned, but I think it is the form of stevia that they use, and there are some other brands that could be just as good.
This is great news considering it tastes great & is beneficial for us! I knew it was not harmful, but didn't realize that it could actually help the fight!
Sorry if someone else posted about this and I missed it.
Let me know if you have any more info on this! How exciting!

Just realized I didn't specify that, the reason I am glad it is an insecticide is because it then implies it could work against internal bugs. I am trying to find out more on this. I have read about it in reference to lyme disease/bugs which some of you have, but not all of you. Regardless, I think it could be helpful for M too...!
