[quote=Anonymous]There is no such thing as a "natural" pesticide. The mosquito sprayings kill ALL the beneficial insects: https://www.uaex.edu/publications/PDF/ag1165.pdf There are many scientific sources on this. Yet we don't plant native plants, we don't have proper storm water waste systems, we don't require LED building practices, we don't have green roofs or solar panels. We pave over the size of Rock Creek Park EVERY YEAR in the DMV: https://www.citylab.com/environment/2016/03/washington-dc-development-stormwater-runoff-impervious-surfaces/475950/ And yet, we expect to have warm weather mosquito free? The tiger mosquito is invasive and very hard to kill. People have been spraying it for decades. So, OP, what do you expect to change? [/quote]
