I know that they spray the entire city here for mosquitoes. Heaven knows what else they do that I don't even know about.<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>BettyB.S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08724883690591213622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17516221.post-68954989275929883182008-05-07T20:46:00.000-04:002008-05-07T20:46:00.000-04:00Men in suits with masks spraying stuff always make...Men in suits with masks spraying stuff always makes me nervous....creepy. <BR/>One of the things I notice when I drive at night in PA is that bugs and lots of them still go "splat" on the windshield.

It's really not too late- I'm sure they're still within the "backing out" period, so I really want to be positive and accepting and appreciative and harbor no ill thoughts. I might still get the house!

It's hard to bring about change.
