I can't stand them. I live in an end unit townhouse, with no one beside me, and no one behind me, with a row of townhouses up the hill. There is no standing water, besides a birdbath, and I put those all natural dunk-ins in it. Yet daily I need to run to my car or front door in order to avoid them. I do the mosquito wipe off dance, and generally knock off at least 5 or 6, and my toddler as well. Is there an alternative way to control mosquitos other than chemicals?? Thanks for any advice!!!
