Have you had much rain lately? I know some states have. Well an increase in the mosquito population is expected as a result. To reduce the breeding of mosquitos, you can look around your property to ensure water has not been collected in water pots or other receptacles.

I recently heard that increasing your bird population at your property will decrease (or prevent increase in the above scenario) the mosquito population. I purchased 2 finch-style bird feeders for $3 each and filled them with bird seed last week and the seed is about half-way gone already. Does anybody know if this will indeed help?

Is there still a big west nile scare? I haven't heard much about it lately. Last year around this time everyone was panic!

That is the last thing I want to hear, when I visit family back east I am always the one that gets bit even during day hours. I have not heard about the bird relation either but whats going to happen when it starts flooding all over like in Atlanta?

i am alway getting bitten by mosquitos, even though we have screens at every window to stop them getting into the house. They breed in stagnent water, so you need to get rid of any that you may have around the garden.
