I have a question - be curious to know if anyone has input.
There are these new mosquito spraying sysems that I've seen now for five years or so that kill mosquitos by discharging a spray perodically from little jets...typically mounted on trees.
I was wondering if anyone has dealt with aphid or scale or spider mite problems in areas with mosquito control systems. It seems like since the sprays are (at least the few I've run across..) cyfluthrin and they are just misted into the air, they could be killing some pretty significant beneifcials...but not necessarily insects that are protected from the air...
Just curious...let me know what you've seen or what you think...
Thanks,
Tierson
