Pesky Mosquitoes

[Reel Poor]

I got this from a friend in an email, so I don't know if it actually works but I'm gonna try it.<br /><br />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.

Do-it-yourself mosquito trap <br /><br />It uses yeast to create CO2, and then traps the bugs in a brown sugar syrup. Took me about an hour to gather everything and get it together and working. I've had it near the back of my house for a week, and it did collect some bugs. The mosquitos haven't started their assult, so I can't say how well it works, but it is collecting some. For the couple dollars it cost, I figured it was worth trying!
