It’s hard to believe this item ate up broadcast news air time.

I grew up in Beaumont TX—and mosquitoes were a fact of life there—and they were big and black!

Once, our family was transferred to Williston, ND. I could not believe the mosquitoes they have (or had there, though this was many years ago, so maybe they have solved it since.)

Two things struck me about Williston (which I came to love): There was no hot lunch program in their schools, so all the kids walked home for lunch—and the mosquitoes!

The kids walking on the sidewalks actually had black clouds of mosquitoes following them as they walked. I would have thought the extreme cold winters up there would have killed all of the mosquitoes, but apparently not….

Totally unrelated, I hope:

Genetically-modified mosquitoes might save thousands of human lives, but is the risk too high?

I just changed 2 tires and gave at least a pint of Hemo in the process, but hell it stopped raining and it was a job to be done and couldn’t put it off any longer, they were just as bad when it was raining.

Lil buggers are brutal this year.

TT

PS When standing in line at Tractor Supply we were all swatting and clapping then as well :^)

DDT would likely have prevented much of this.

I’m told bats eat mosquitoes. Then what we need is more bats...

Just another reason not to come to Texas, Satan got Hell, we got bats and mosquitoes and killer bees and fire ants. And they’re all bigger in Texas. Have a nice day.
