[quote=Anonymous]A plea again for people to plant native perennials. The annoying mosquitos are the invasive tiger mosquitos and, as you know, they’re active during the day when bats (the usual mosquito patrollers) are sound asleep. You need to have native birds (many of which will eat all manner of tiny flying insects, including mosquitos) and predatory insects and they are brought by native plants. If you have grass and some evergreen bushes and some pretty annuals, you have a food desert as far as birds and pollinators are concerned. Even better if you and several other neighbors coordinate and plant a lot![/quote]
