Today a two men anti mosquito team appeared in Ovacık. They said , they are spraying insecticides into the pools. I did not let them in. They entered all the gardens around without warning or asking for permission and sprayed all around. I did not let them in as they have no right to enter private property like this. No respect for animals like cats , dogs , birds drinking water from the pools. No attention if there is a pet in the garden that should not escape.
I come from a part of Istanbul where they started to fight mosquitoes this way starting 1960. When we left in 2007 and came here , there were still mosquitoes. What was missing was the birds. The mosquitoes survived , other insects died and the birds left.
