Does anyone have a way to get rid of these things? The less humane, the better.  |
let me ask you a question.... is the foliage on (around) your property real thick and over grown where there is little
air circulation?
that is a HUGE factor in creating the perfect storm breeding ground for any of the biting insects. I did a bunch of clearing at this one place where horses lived right next door and that made a huge difference.
for skeetos you use "DUNKS" the little doughtnut shaped water treatment for mosquitoes...sold at home depot. so if there is any
standing water near by
you just toss one in there and presto
no more bug factory.
i have and use the electric zapper trap that has the bait cup you replenish ....
and i've noticed that the mosquitoes are at their worst when the humidity is real high from a recent rain and the wind is fairly low.
WIND is the enemy of these flying insects as it challenges them and makes it easier for the predators to get them that are unfazed by a five or ten mile an hour wind.
