Spring has sprung, and our crops are growing, and as such our back door is seeing tons of activity as Justin and I travel from inside to outside, and vice versa, with gardening tools, plants, and other items. However, we're not the only two coming in and out of the house; mosquitoes are, too. Last night, for instance, I managed to swat a half dozen blood suckers. Although, swatting with my hand is as far as I'll go to kill these pests.
As residents of St. Louis County, our local government routinely sprays for mosquitoes from the months of May through October. However, the mosquito tucks don't spray down our block. That's because we're on the do-not-spray list. Yes, it's true, people have a right to opt-out of mosquito spraying!
But what's the problem with mosquito spraying, you ask? Plenty.
