Re: West Nile Virus

Actually, as I have 2 creeks and a swamp on my property, I think I am 
REDUCING the mosquito population by sieving my horses' water trough for 
mosquito larvae. My thinking is that the mosquitos that lay eggs in my trough 
would otherwise be laying in the swamp or creeks, so I am reducing their 
population. Also, I get far fewer bites out here in the country than I did 
living in the city. Go figure. They NEVER spray out here, but there are bats 
and barn swallows (natural bug control.) And the horse vaccine for West Nile 
Virus is very safe. All my horses are vaccinated - they never even got a bump 
at the vaccination site.  Carolyn
