[Jacob-list] Mosquito battle (was: Good worming information)

[Christopher Brantley]

I suppose this is an arena that we will choose to agree to disagree. Having been in public health as a physician, epidemiologist, and prevenative medical specialist for the last 17 years I've always adivsed folks to avoid certain creatures, both mosquitos and bats are on that list. 
 
I've taken a beating for things that are far more simplistic, so I"m not surprised that there are those that think bats are good to have around, but for the sake of safety... I will always advise people to avoid both the mosquitos and the bats, neither are what I want around my home, children, or neighborhood. 
 
What you do with beyond that is none ofmy business, for pete's sake.. live and let live.

There is nothing you can do about it.

Not one thing.

Life is full of risks.
