Mosquito killer

[Maria64]

Pass this on to 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 a couple drops of Lemon Fresh Joy dish detergent. Set the
dish on your porch, patio, or other outdoor area. Not sure what attracts
them, the lemon smell, the white plate color, 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.

Thanks! Have anything for flies? They seems to have multiplied and are EVERYWHERE this year. I don't know what they like at my mailbox by the street.

I'll have to try it. We were in the yard the other night and even with bug spray on, we were eaten alive.

Call me crazy but...wouldn't this bring mosquitos up to
just exactly where you were sitting?! Hey, put it in the
neighbors yard-LOL!
