The best way to deal with mosquito problems is to insure that you have no breeding spaces in your yard. Once you've done that there are plenty of insect repellents available that you can buy to solve the problem for yourself rather than expecting the government to take care of your problems. The mosquito trucks may have made you feel better but they did little to eradicate mosquitoes.
We need less socialism and more individual responsibility.
West Nile Virus is becoming a serious risk in this area. You might want to educate yourself on how far a mosquito can travel. While clearing your own property of standing water is highly recommended, it does little to rid your neighbors, public spaces or creeks and ponds from larva.
Unless you're willing to assume responsibility for the entire area and physically remove all threat of disease carrying Mosquitos, we need the truck back!!
The only question I have is " When the truck was functioning, why was I still bitten by mosquitoes? " According to a CDC researcher most people already have the antibodies to West nile. Statistically, the greatest threat to your health is everytime you drive your car.
