I just went home to water my garden, and Petunia is indeed cowebitating with a spry-looking young man.... and she was out and about in the web rather than her usual spot (in a little hidey hole, half inside her box of cigs) - hanging upside down, about two inches below (almost directly below) her gentleman friend. SLUT!

Well I'm glad the little tart's breeding a mini army for you. For some reason I don't get the big webs around here (well, not near the house) until about this time of year...maybe a few more weeks from now. I do have a decent amount of wolf spiders in the house and while they probably get a lot of other creepy crawlies, I doubt they get any skeeters. Those wolf spiders are fast little buggers...I used to worry about the cat killing them so I'd shoo them under the nearest cover if he was stalking them, but I don't think he can get them so I don't worry about it anymore.

Oh gross! That male spider ate Petunia!! He had her all wrapped up and was chewing on her this morning. And yes, you sick fucks, I did take photos. Spider snuff porn. Jesus people, never play S&M games with someone you don't know and trust. Let this be a lesson, a tragic **sniffle** lesson for us all.

So you know I have 6 rain barrels in my back yard that collect the runoff from our roof I use for watering , plus a 200 gallon plastic pond that collects the AC condensation from the window unit in our bedroom. It's the perfect breeding ground for mosquitos.

Bring em on.

THIS.

Warren Cracks Down On Those Who Harbor Mosquitoes

Jim Fouts, mosquitoes, Warren, west nile
WARREN (WWJ) – The city of Warren is cracking down on those who harbor mosquitoes after the suspected death this week of a Macomb County man from the West Nile Virus.

Mayor Jim Fouts said those who have stagnant pools or ponds and other areas that harbor mosquitoes could face a $1,000 fine.

The mayor said Michigan was one of the top two states in both fatalities and serious illnesses caused by West Nile almost 10 years ago. Under the new plan, Fouts said said inspectors will look for pools of water in places like dumpsters, wheelbarrows, tires, pipes, drains and flower pots.

Homeowners will be given a warning and a chance to fix the problem.

“Every effort will be put forth to protect Warren residents against the dangers posed by mosquito infestation. This year is of particular concern because of the very heavy rain that this area has encountered in the last several months,” said Fouts, in a statement released Friday.

“It’s likely that if we cannot control mosquito breeding in early summer we will have to undergo heavy mosquito biting in late summer and early fall,” he said.

Fouts’ Mosquito Eradication, Education and Prevention program includes:

1) Property Maintenance inspectors will be trained by the engineering department for the proper use of the briquettes.


2) Property Maintenance inspectors will be directed to identify pools or ponds of water which would be ideal breeding grounds for mosquito’s. They will also identify other potential breeding areas for mosquitos such as dumpsters, wheelbarrows, tires, hubcaps, garden equipment, pool covers, pipes, drains, recycling bins, flower pots, buckets and clogged rain gutters.

3) Citizens will be encouraged to check the above items and make sure they are emptied of standing stagnant water.

4) If inspectors identify stagnant pools and other major sources of mosquito breeding homeowners will be notified that they must eliminate the problem or if not they may face fines up to $1000.

5) The Warren DPW will distribute the briquettes to the 18,000 catch basins.

6) The Recreation Department will direct and train their employees to identify and then treat places of standing water in the parks with “mosquito dunks” which are similarly shaped like hockey pucks. They dissolve in water and kill the larvae.

7) The Communication Dept will offer prevention and treatment tips to residents via their Newsbeat seasonal flyer which will be mailed out in July.

8) The city will also mail out mosquito information in its monthly water bill.

9) City will contact county officials to get their help in treating catch basins on county roads Van Dyke, Mound, and Schoenherr.

Fouts is encouraging officials in other Metro Detroit cities to adopt a smiliar plan.

Oh those are fucking brilliant, put those in your ponds/rainwater recepticals, birdbaths, etc, no problem. No $1000 fine for you, imo. ($1000 does seem a little ridiculous in Detroit, can't you get a four-bedroom house for that? Maybe $80 would do the trick.) I just like the idea of educating people, with threats if absolutely necessary, about mosquitoes and how we as individuals and responsible citizens can help keep them under control, just by spending a few minutes going around our homes and lawns, and turning over old pots and crap like that. Giving families free fishies where appropriate would probably be part of my plan for Atlanta, too, but I'm a socialist like that. I'd give away free spiders as well, if I didn't worry about the potential heartbreak and psychological disorders when children saw their precious new pets murder-fucking each other.

I've only heard the term used ironically, when people are making fun of various upper-class stereotypes of poor rural Southerners. Eg, "Them thar skeeters is as mean as a horny weasel with a bear trap on its dick haha just kidding. We at the CDC have noted the various differences in the behavior of Aedes albopictus (Stegomyia albopicta) from other members of the Culicidae family, and the potential for enhanced spread of diseases currently classified as tropical remains a concern, though this is one threat we can thus far do little to mitigate."

Some of my friends call them skeeters. Or just skeeto's.

I scoop the mosquito fish out of the ditch down the road, breed them in my receptacles and give them away to my friends and neighbors.

I have filtration to make it potable.
