Default Mosquito spraying

[QUOTE=photo1902;1566051]That's very nice of you to say. Thank you!

One follow up to the earlier info from Mosquito Control:

"When the traps catch enough we will spray the area, if we continuously were to spray eventually the mosquitoes would build up a resistance to the chemical and with only so many chemicals out there that we can use. it would be detrimental if that happened."[/QUOTE
During the past few days in De La Vista South, it has become almost impossible to go sit in the yard without getting swarmed by mosquitoes in evening, I don’t ever remember them being this bad before. I realize we live in an area with plenty of marshland do these areas get sprayed frequently?
