I'm looking for
1. reasons why spraying is a bad idea and
2. Organic alternatives to "controlling" the mosquito population...

Thanks in advance,


Claude

what are they spraying? They may already be using Bt, it's getting pretty popular given how many pesticides are being withdrawn. As for alternatives, I'd look at big bat houses. Try bat conservation international, Austin TX, I think.
