[ale] WAY OT controlling asian tiger mosquitos and others

[Ron Frazier (ALE)]

Upon rereading my message, I see that my language was ambiguous.  My 
application for the no pest strips, if I were to use them, would be 
inside but in unoccupied areas.  But, I'd rather avoid those 
pesticides.  Even in the basement, I might be worried about infiltration 
to the upstairs.  I've noticed that the humidity downstairs affects the 
humidity upstairs, for example.

However, I'd put the dragonflys or bats or birds OUTSIDE.  8-)

call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new email messages very quickly.)
