I know this is not the place for my commentary, but I certainly don't want to see someone follow the media's poorly thought out comments and think removing plants will prevent Zika or another disease. I'm not a fatalist, it's just simply common sense that if there is no water in a Bromelaid that the mosquito will find it elsewhere. I also do not believe if a mosquito lays her eggs in someone's Bromelaid that it would somehow be their fault; she's gonna do what instinct dictates, so WHERE is not the problem. If society is seriously going to deal with it, removing plants is not the solution.
I'm done. Anyone want a soapbox to make a planter with?
