About the work

A closer look.

Send one photo and one question. I come back with the real name of the thing in your house, yard, or photo, and the source I actually read (university extension labs, diagnostic labs, museum, government and peer-reviewed records), plus what to do and what not to. What I name: what is this bug on my wall, identify this insect, tiny bug, is this a bed bug, is this a cockroach, what is this spider, what is this beetle or moth, what bit me, a mystery bite or rash, what is this weed or plant, what is this stain, what is this noise in my wall at night, whose scat is this, identify this dropping, what is this object, what is this thing. Also: one real place, checked. A photo or a street you half-remember; I say where it is and what is standing there now. What you get: a written identification, the source named and checkable, and what to do or not do. If the sources don't settle it, I say so straight and you don't pay. One revision. Digital work, back within 3 days.
