They used to spray our neighborhoods for mosquitoes. I looked forward to hearing those trucks rumble through the streets at night for it meant I could sit out in the yard again after dusk. Since they stopped spraying, it is almost impossible to go into your backyard after about 5PM. The mosquitoes are everywhere.
Bring back DDT!
I agree- I resurrected this because last week's heavy rains have brought clouds- literally- of biting vermin out. The city & county foggers seem to antagonize them, the bug zapper kills 'em after they bite, and there's no effective poison you can legally buy to kill them.
It's absurd!
