A bit of inconvenience but worth it in the long run. | |

The doggies sulked all week, because they could not sleep outside at night.

Hold your breath? Or vacate the area, I suppose...
I remember the Malathion stuff back in the 1980's. It was eerie to be buzzed by very low-flying helicopters that flew in formation. Very Vietnam War-ish.
And after all that, they still found the MedFlies all over the place anyway. Go figure. | | | |

No, that area isn't covered, it's Porter Rd west to 347. Means Tortosa won't be sprayed. | |

Alert | I remember the Med Fly spraying also, I was in So Cal at the time and we had a horrid flea problem, once they sprayed--no more fleas!
As a side note, my brother-in-law is the guy that developed the method that got rid of the Med Fly, then was called back in to get rid of it again and re-educate the PHD's that messed up his plan and allowed them back in. | |

Alert | Didn't Dr. Dimento (sp?) do a song about the Med Fly?
I remember I got stopped at the border of Arizona and California and it took me a half hour to convince them to let me bring my Hatch chilies from NM home. | |
