Check around your home for standing water. Clean those gutters. Protect you and your birds.

the mosquitos are terrible here this year since we had all that rain. We keep all containers inside a shed or upsidedown so we don't have water standing around to breed them. Thanks for the warning!

I gotta say...I hate bats. But thank God for 'em. Those little Mexican bats eat up almost all the squitos here in Austin!
