[QUOTE=Gillianren;1173463]Education, of course. A lot of very good education for as many people as I can provide it to.
And yeah, end malaria--and polio; there's been a vaccine for that for fifty years, for heaven's sake.
Gillianren. BTI is very effective for mosquito control. We put some in a few small plastic pond liners at work when the mosquito larvae began surfacing. Within three days they were all dead. Subsequently torrential rains spilled the contents out into the garden center yard, and across the stoneworks into the abutting swamp...three years ago....haven't seen a single mosquito since....and I mean zero. Birds transport the bacteria on their feet, and people have commented on the mosquito-free environs. Some other insect will fill their niche....but the danger of triple E..(Eastern Equine Encephalitis )..or West Nile virus is nil. A heck of a lot cheaper than mosquito netting...and like smallpox...I'm never going to miss that bioform. see:
