You have to introduce their natural Predators.

[-] ArbiterXero@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

Then we send wave after wave of gorillas at them!

Image Transcription:

Facebook post by user Nevin Tressler to the Organic Gardening group reading: "They are destroying my garden. What is it and how do I get rid of them without pesticides"

Attached are two photos, one of a xenomorph facehugger from Aliens wrapped around a plant pot with a succulent in it that appears to be mid-topple, the second photo is of the same facehugger apparently scurrying away from the same now-toppled pot.

Thank you, fellow human 🤖

A flamethrower will work and it is not a pesticide.

[-] robbotlove@lemmy.world 24 points 11 months ago

get away from her you bitch.

[-] NegativeLookBehind@kbin.social 11 points 11 months ago

They mostly come out at night.

Mostly.

I thought this was real and the OOP was Australian. Took me far too long to get it.

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 27 points 11 months ago

I love that it would look right at home in Australia

[-] MyNameIsIgglePiggle@sh.itjust.works 11 points 11 months ago

We would take them as pets because they are really friendly and misunderstood. They just like to climb around your bedroom walls at night and you often wake up with them suspended directly above you on the roof

It would probably get killed by the local fauna pretty quick. Then it would get tossed on the BBQ

[-] anonymoose@lemmy.ca 27 points 11 months ago

They're actually harmless and keep your yard free of invasive species (like humans).

[-] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 24 points 11 months ago

A crowbar might be surprisingly effective.

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 10 points 11 months ago

Is it also important to stay entirely silent while doing this method?

[-] Bytemeister@lemmy.world 22 points 11 months ago

Nuke the site from orbit. It's the only way to be sure.

Have you considered running for your life, mate?

[-] The_Picard_Maneuver@startrek.website 13 points 11 months ago

Would I find that brand at Lowe's or Home Depot?

[-] LinkOpensChest_wav@lemmy.one 21 points 11 months ago

I just keep an orange tabby called Jonesy around to help with that

[-] geekworking@lemmy.world 10 points 11 months ago

The only problem is that it's just a matter of time until he brings a not quite dead one into the house as a present.

[-] Treczoks@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago

Just do it like you would do with a spider in your house: catch it alive, and set it free in an environment where it can thrive, e.g. Washington, D.C.

[-] dipshit@lemmy.world 18 points 11 months ago

It’s just looking for a fresh face!

[-] downpunxx@kbin.social 18 points 11 months ago

Game Over, Man. Game Over.

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 18 points 11 months ago

Flamethrowers seem to be the go-to solution if you don't want to use pesticides.

[-] Discola@lemm.ee 18 points 11 months ago

Nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure

[-] Venat0r@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago

Technically not using pesticides 😂👍

[-] whaleross@lemmy.world 15 points 11 months ago

My gut feeling is to just face it or it will burst out of control.

[-] cloudless@feddit.uk 14 points 11 months ago

OceanGate has a device that can kill a person faster than the brain can process what's going on. That should be humane.

[-] esadatari@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

is “hug therapy” not the way? that explains my family’s disappearance.

[-] ShittyRedditWasBetter@lemmy.world 12 points 11 months ago

Fire. Lots of it.

[-] Adulated_Aspersion@lemmy.world 11 points 11 months ago

Fire.

Lots of fire.

[-] artic@lemmy.blahaj.zone 11 points 11 months ago

i olny have inhumane solutions

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 9 points 11 months ago

I'd recommend a pulse rifle, or flamethrower.

If you want to be sure, nuke it from orbit. It's the only way.

These are not pesticides, therefore within the limitations of the question.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago

They have acid blood, so I would suggest a strong base such as bleach.

[-] TheFreed@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Just move out, you have already lost the garden

[-] Monkstrosity@lemm.ee 6 points 11 months ago

Nothing an L56A3 Smartgun can’t handle. I always keep mine resting on the back porch ready for these pesky varmints.

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 5 points 11 months ago

Just walk around in the yard for a bit.

[-] Radio_717@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

That thing looks like a face bugger from Aliens. What is it?

[-] techingtenor@lemm.ee 14 points 11 months ago

It is what you think it is haha

[-] H2207@lemmy.world 8 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Idk maybe a facehugger from Aliens?
