Mosquitoes

 

 

Pass this on to anyone who likes sitting out in the evening or

when they're having a cook out. So you don't like those pesky mosquitoes,

especially now that they have the potential to carry the West Nile Virus?

 

Here's a tip that was given at a recent gardening forum.. Put some water in a

white dinner plate and add a couple drops of Lemon Fresh Joy dish detergent. Set

the dish on your porch, patio, or other outdoor area.

 

Not sure what attracts them, the lemon smell, the white plate color, or what,

but mosquitoes flock to it, and drop dead shortly after drinking the Lemon Fresh

Joy/water mixture, and usually within about 10 feet of the plate.

 

Check this out---it works just super!

 

May seem trivial, but it may help control mosquitoes around your

home, especially in the South and elsewhere where the West Nile virus is

reaching epidemic proportions in mosquitoes, birds, and humans.

How about we set the dish away from the house and make them go over to the dish

far away??? Why is it always suggested to put these things that attract then

kill near your house? You should put things that repel near your house and

things that attract and kill away from your house.

I can't help but wonder if this kills nothing but male mosquitos...males live on

flower nectar and such, and therefore might be attracted by the lemony

odor...it's the females that must drink blood for their eggs to develop.
