With the hysteria over West Nile virus, localities are spraying to kill

You need to check with your locals about what they are spraying with.
Many localities are spraying with Bacillus thurensis, which is harmless to plants and animals, save of course mosquito larvae. Happy ponding, Greg wrote in message ganews.com...
