Someone, who obviously knows how much I dislike these bloodsuckers, sent this to me. Thought I pass this lil trick on to you, and hope it helps !!! MOSQUITOES: This is for 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 just a few drops of Lemon Fresh Joy dish detergent. Set the dish on your porch, patio, or other outdoor area. we're not sure what attracts them, the lemon smell, the white plate, 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. Can't Hurt To Give It A Try !!!!!!!
Really ? Lol, thanks very much. But I can't take credit for that. I was only posting what has been posted before, lol!
I wonder if it works on Midges and Gnats etc., Nat?.........If it does, our Scottish friends will be delighted........Not being funny, but what is West Nile Virus?.....never heard of it before!.........It doesn't sound good. Cochise.
