There are some days leaving work when I feel like someone should do that to me before I walk into my house or otherwise engage in contact with normal society.

I live in Houston and they do this all the time in the summer here. At night while lying in bed you can hear the truck coming; it has a beeper and flashing lights and they are spraying something to kill the mosquitos. We have air conditioning so I think we are somewhat safe. It does one to wonder if one lone spray machine can actually do anything against hordes of mosquitos.

It works, chris...hard to believe but it helps a lot with the little blood suckers. I sometimes wonder what else it kills, though?

OK, does anybody remember "I am Curious Yellow"?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Am_Curious_(Yellow) I am thinking of the scene when they go to a clinic because they have crabs, and this old lady uses a paint brush to cover them with disinfectant. That scene has stuck in my mind for some time. |

Here in Central FL we get trucks that fog the neighborhoods for mosquitoes, always have as long as I can remember. Sucks to get stuck behind one in your car, or worse, have one fog you on your bike when you were a kid.
