this is probably off subject, but I wanted to describe a situation here in the mid south and see if others are experiencing the same. After the coldest winter in memory, and I have a lot of years of memory, we thought insect production would be diminished. It was not. We have more than I can remember. Every time I go outside I am attacked by mesquitos. In previous years we had few mesquitos.

Same here. I use a teaspoon of turpentine per 55 gallon drum on my water catchment to keep them killed off.

I've been planting lemon grass which is supposed to ward off the mosquitoes. We'll see.

And very little is off-subject here if it deals with the garden area (outside).
