Jean, I don't think the mosquito larvae carry the WN virus, but I may be
wrong. I believe the adult mosquito has to bite an infected bird, then
bite the horse. Hey, just think of all the extra protein they are getting
by drinking the mosquito

Carol, my cat would love to have me put that tar paper up as bats are her
frustration. I would go for the houses as a cat can not get in if it is

Bats do us the favor of eating 2000 to 7000 mosquitoes a night (yes,
