The Most (And Least) Effective Ways to Control Mosquitoes - Art of Manliness

Image
Warmer days have finally arrived.  That means cookouts, cornhole, and swimming.  It also means mosquitoes. I hate those suckers (pun intended!). Mosquitoes can ruin a perfectly good outdoor event. They can also spread viruses like West Nile and Zika.  To prevent yourself from getting bitten, you can spray your body with insect repellent. But even when it's natural stuff you make yourself, slathering that gunk on is annoying. Ideally, you'd like to not only keep mosquitoes away from your skin, but away from your vicinity in general.  I've tried to curb the mosquitoes around my home over the years, but every summer they seem to get the better of me. I've made it a goal this year to finally vanquish them. In preparing my 'squito battle plan, I've learned that there are better and worse tactics to employ, and below we break down which common control methods belong in each category.

GPCA Recognizes Carney, Cugnon and Golden - PCT - PCT Online

DAVIE, Fla. -  A team of students from the University of Florida Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences (UF/IFAS) determined that less is more when it comes to just how many members of a subterranean termite colony must consume a chemical known as a chitin synthesis inhibitor (CSI) before the colony is eliminated.  The study, published in the Journal of Pest Science, takes a closer look at how much bait it takes to eliminate a subterranean colony.  As a prominent industry standard used in bait systems, CSI baits were first commercially used in the mid-1990s. Bait systems work as slow-acting agents. Current commercial formulations can provide a cost-effective and sustainable solution against potential damage from subterranean termites.  "If termites feed on the bait, it can lead to colony elimination in a few months, as University of Florida researchers have demonstrated in the past three decades through dozens of keystone studies," sai...
