Mosquito Control-Part Deux!

Well ladies and gentlemen, I received this helpful response from the official mosquito patrol of Mecklenburg County: "Mecklenburg County does not 'fog' or spray neighborhoods for adult mosquito control. We do provide control via treating/eliminating standing water areas, performing neighborhood surveys in backyards, education, etc. That said, I suggest we do up a Service Request on your residence at ---- Scotland Avenue, 28207 and survey yours and nearby yards."

In other words, if you have any standing water on your property, get rid of it! When you stop laughing, that is. (He assures me the mosquitos do not breed on the creek. Silly me!)
