Gnu, I was in Costco yesterday and they have this machine in there that converts propane to CO2 and will attract and capture mosquitoes, no-see-ums and black flies and supposedly clear an area of 1500 square feet of the buggers in no time flat....well it said you had to wait 2 weeks to see the difference......and it costs about 300 bucks and....come to think of it you can buy a lot of deet for that kind of money....and see immediate results.

Now horse flies and I don't get along too well anymore....the last time one took a chunk out of me, my leg swoll up and fell over the top of my sock......of course that was in Alberta, we don't have any really nasty bugs out here on this coast.........yeah, right.
