Patti, where do you get those organic flytraps you use in your video? Those look awesome and I would LOVE something that leaves the bees alone but still kills the flies...

Do you have any solutions for mosquitos?????

They are awsome, but nasty. You can usually find them at a Feed Store in your local area. On line I think you can get them from Murray McMurray hatchery. The brand name is Farnum. I wasn't going to link them until they paid me:D.

For mosquitos I use BT on any water surface that I control. The best solution though is fish. They eat all the larvae. Reccomend your local fish and wildlife to stock local pond or swamp land that could be producing mosquito's near you(within a mile). Check a topogrphical map of your area and see what you find. And last, but not least, bird houses. I built a bunch of birdhouses and bird feeders from scrap wood which will encourage wild birds to move into your homestead. Works wonders.
