I picked up stuff about making life more comfortable down here via the Live and Learn way School of Hard Knocks.
Such as mosquitoes are territorial
If you have a mosquito problem the problem is like within 50 feet of where you are standing.
A standing bottle-cap of water can support a hatch. Any sink drain or toilet in the house left unused can hatch hundreds of mosquitoes in a week. Use bleach, Don't forget the tank.
Check planter bases, crumpled plastic bags for gatherings of water no matter how tiny. An almost empty glass of water can make life miserable so can a pool of air conditioner condensation. Flat roofs with concave area puddles are an often overlooked monster hatchery, and I use cooking oil which floats and lasts for months.
Hey Russ!
Is the air dry enough up there to make a swamp cooler worthwhile early in the season?
