I guess we are in the mosquito capital of the world Daniel.. Aren't those tiger mosquitoes horrible and huge? I remember going to Hawaii where everyone advised us to spray up for the skeeters and we laughed because there were so few there. My son lives in FL and we never have mosquito or no see um problems when sitting on his deck. Fortunately we have an abundance of anoles and birds to help keep the insect population in check. I live on the marsh and I am pleased that, by law, they cannot aerial spray our property (to prevent contamination of the waterways) but there are times when I feel like being outside without being so covered up with clothing or deet.
Minds are like parachutes; they work better when they are open.
