Mossie babys in water love veggies. Oil included. May be good on the skin in the pool. A water butt? V.

Hello Villas

I had not thought that mozzie babies would enjoy the oil. So the best thing is to stick with paraffin I doubt they will enjoy that.

You queried the water butt. Did you not have any of those in the UK? We never used expensive tap water to water the plants.

I have got a load here too, but they all have lids for this very reason.

Classic man with respect.( & think this has been covered over "review over the couple weeks"). Pool(with mossies) in a crystal pool.......oil, etc no!. Plant pots water, my depositos etc.....do what u think. Pool, for salt... Or.... Chemical pool..... (Chlorine.) I have irrigation (no butts etc) more stagnant water. No mossies.. Don't send 'em up here👎. Villas.

I probably only live a couple of kilometers from you and yes, I have mozzies, The Vinolopo runs 50m from my house. Sax council used to come and spray regularly but I have not seen them for year or two. That's why I keep everything covered.

They don't mend the potholes either, but that's another post.

Re much earlier post. I was in La Casino this morning and a very noisy Harley came by.
