went up this evening to feed up and wash down the pens. we've had dogs on the same slab since the early 80's when my grandpa first moved there, and i've never seen skeeters that bad.
we've got a pretty good fan blowing most of the time. in fact, you have to turn the fan off to be able to wash the pens out. i splash a little bleach in the water buckets once a week to keep the water clean and skeeter larvae and other bugs out. i'd like to try the lickers and get rid of the buckets but i still ain't sold on them yet. not to mention worrying about running the pipe and then worrying about the lines freezing in the winter. what do yall think?
is there anything else yall know of to keep the skeeters away? we're in the middle of the woods and back up to a wet weather pond/swamp, so it's kinda like peein in the wind trying to do much good.
