Sivri Sinekler (Mossies !).

I haven't seen ANY mention of the dreaded Mossie  >:( on The Forum for a long time, what is the situation at the moment ??  I know when the Memsahib & I were over in April/May, there were absolutely none around at all. Just curious is all.   :angel:

It's so much better these days, I've only been bitten a few times this year.
I don't know what they're doing differently but whatever it is they seem to have got them under control !

I noticed a brand new spray contraption going around calis on a regular basis, this may have something to do with it.

The bug wagon is coming around 2-3 times a week now, it's only ever been once a week in past years. Problem is, every time it comes around I seem to get bitten!

They always used to come round twice a week when we lived there and they would go round twice a week in Fethiye (if not more)  every monday and Thursday night, it was a case of cover your Fish and Chips as they went by, Kosem Quiz night Mondays and Thursday.


It was 2004 I was in the Kitchen when I spied 2 men walking up our driveway with a strange pack on their back, I watch them for a while, they were looking at the plants, smelling the roses, talking to each other then they started to spray our garden, being alone at that time I didn't want to go out to confront them, but then later that same week they returned, this time I shoved Gordon outside to find out what they were upto, he returned smiling, apparently the council had men going round spraying mossie killer, they saw our garden and thought they would spray it too, how wonderful.  And to think this was included in our 18TL yearly Council Tax!!!!! ;D

terrible over here in the Gocek bays, was bitten to death last night so they are around - but perhaps preventative measures in Fethiye / Calis are working well.
