Mosquito fogging not necessary in 'Peg: officials

WINNIPEG - When is a nuisance enough of a nuisance to warrant action? When it comes to mosquitos, the city of Winnipeg says, "not yet."

The city's insect control branch says the buzzing and biting of mosquitoes may be bugging you, but it's not bad enough to start fogging with malathion to kill them.

Insect control spokesman Ken Nowalsky says two things are required before fogging takes place: the number of mosquitos in test traps must reach a certain number, and the weather must co-operate.

"Before we can ever consider going into a nuisance mosquito control program for fogging, we have to have three consecutive nights of 25 or more female mosquitos [in the traps], so we can't even contemplate residential fogging until that set of goals has been achieved."

For the province of Manitoba, a fogging campaign is triggered by West Nile virus, not nuisance mosquitos.

"Right now we look at a number of factors, none of which are present at this time," says Dr. Susan Roberecki is Deputy Chief Medical Officer. "We haven't yet identified West Nile in Manitoba, and were hoping to do that, usually first with birds."

Ontario and Saskatchewan have reported birds infected with West Nile.

To protect yourself from mosquitos, officials suggest covering up exposed skin and wearing insect repellent that contains DEET.




I think Joni Mitchell said it best...


Hey farmer farmer
Put away that d.d.t. now
Give me spots on my apples
But leave me the birds and the bees
Please!
Don’t it always seem to go
That you don’t know what you’ve got
Till it’s gone
They paved paradise
And put up a parking lot

After a long night of making love, a man notices a photo of another man  on the woman's nightstand by her bed. He begins to worry...  

 

"Is this your husband?" he nervously asks.

 

"No, silly," she replies, snuggling up to him.

 

"Your boyfriend, then?" he continues.

 

"No, not at all,"  she says, nibbling away at his ears.

 

"Is it your dad or your brother?"  he inquires, hoping to be reassured.

 

"No, no, no!!!" she answers.

 

Then he demands, "Well, who in the hell is he?"

 

"That's me before the surgery."

A Cow Story....

Is it just me or does anyone else find it absolutely amazing that the U.S. government can track a cow born in Canada almost three years ago, right to the stall where she sleeps in the state of Washington, and determine exactly what that cow ate. They can also track her calves right to their stalls, and tell you what kind of feed they ate. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around in their country, including people that are trying to blow up important structures in the U.S. Seems like a good solution is to give every illegal alien a cow as soon as
they enter the country.

Yo! This is cool!

I can post to my weblog via email now!  Expect more random thoughts from now on!  My network administrator at work has restricted access to blogger.com from work, so I have been unable to post as much as I would like to.  Ha Ha...  they can't keep me down!

"Don't even ask" she replies, "when I think back to that party...you're
lucky you don't bark!"
