I'm so glad you ran this article again. I didn't even recognize it until I saw our posts from last year. I do want to add chickens to the list. Mosquitos can breed in curled up leaves in your yard. Chickens disturb anything and everything. Nothing can live in my yard.
I have a couple of pans of water outback for various critters and I dump them every 3rd day. If you look at the pan of water on the 4th day you can see the larva swimming. When I dump the water it's a race between the ants and the chickens. But I haven't seen the chickens dunk for larva. I've seen them snap at things in the air that's a possible skeeter.
I saw a baby bunny the other day. Thought it was a rat but it had no tail and it was fat and puggy. Things like that just make life worth living.
