Made another mosquito-killing box fan to set up near chairs on my front porch. As mosquitoes approach they get flattened against the netting, which I spray with permethrin, a contact insecticide. #mosquitoes #permethrin #fan

I added a PDF to my page about mosquito-killing buckets in case anyone wants to print something off to give to neighbors. Link to the file is near the bottom. #mosquitoes https://colinpurrington.com/2024/08/bti-honeypot-traps/

It's an absolutely beautiful Sunday. Perfect temperature, no mosquitoes. Yet I see and hear zero kids outside. I live across from a park and it's completely empty. Likely the same for the whole day until the ice cream truck melody lures them to the street.
