Time to bring back the mosquito spraying trucks, too. Ahhh, you always knew it was summer when you heard the “purr” of the mosquito truck.

AND when the trucks left we could sit outside in comfort.

BUT one stupid book filled with lies ended one of the greatest inventions that saved countless lives.

"Time to bring back the mosquito spraying trucks, too. Ahhh, you always knew it was summer when you heard the “purr” of the mosquito truck."

That billowing white cloud following the mosquito truck was aerosolized DDT. Me and about 10 million other American kids used to run out into the street and follow the truck, playing in the cloud.

So if DDT is so dangerous, why was there never a rash of cases of any injuries or illness from such a mass of people being directly exposed to it?

And here's where I mention (again) that the leading cause of death on the planet is mosquito-borne disease.
