2. They did this with "ankle biter" mosquitoes in Los Angeles

and it seems to have worked.
For the past 5 years or so I was getting attacked by mosquitoes by just stepping into the yard to water plants—during the day! There was also an huge increase of them in the home. I’d see posts on NextDoor and Ring about “ankle biter” reports.

This year, I haven’t been bit once by mosquitoes. And not seeing all the complaints by others.
