No but someone from over there died from a mosquito bite

The saving money part I made up since I determine it was cheaper to spray based on trap count vs scheduled spraying. This was based on numerous scientific calculations and a good Burbon Old Fashion > Actually I'm not sure about the scientific calculations but after a 2nd Old Fashion, it still seems like it to me. BTW I checked #25 and it doesn't indicate when they started the trap count method.

I have trouble remembering the PB score or who served but I think?? the person I talked to at that number provided in that quote (when I asked them to spray our area) indicated it was a new method and they are also counting on people who have an issue in an area to let them know so they can spray that area. I can't say I'm crazy about spraying but I do think it's better than mosquitos driving people inside at dawn or having them spread whatever disease they spread after biting and sucking blood from their last host.

Over where?

Or maybe the Dunlap around waist provided stealthy imagine? :shocked:

Wow, really? Play nice everyone. Us 'south off 44ers' need to spread the word about unusually high amounts of mosquitoes. Let the businesses know it will effect their business, too.

ME TOO. I agree. We live off of 466.

I fully expected every variety of bugs to be a much bigger problem than they are...Miniscule problem here.

The Villages does their job and residents are not afraid to use insecticides also.

The Villages is not responsible for mosquito spraying. It's the county's responsibility.

You are very fortunate. The mosquitos in our neighborhood are always bad. I got 5 bites from my car to my mailbox and back last evening. Forget being in our yard at dusk and after. The mosquitos are the county's responsibility. Mosquito Control | Sumter County, FL - Official Website

I too was surprised by the lack of bugs as we always heard Florida was terrible because of the bugs. The only ones we have had are of course the love bugs, and 3 times we had those miniature ghost ants come in to find something but were easily eradicated with liquid bait. We live on a pond and have no mosquito problems and the anoles eat whatever is around our landscape. I do use home defense as a precaution and I guess it works as nothing ever comes in the house or lanai not even those little millipedes that I have heard people complain about. A little off topic but no dandelions in the St. Augustine lawns that I have ever seen and that is just great.

Geesh.... a mosquito attack? Were they armed?

I saw the mosquito sprayer just last night around 7:30 in our neighborhood near Lake Sumter. They are loud trucks with flashing lights.
