Summer's arrived, which means it's once again time to spread panic about mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus breeding in the swimming pools of abandoned and foreclosed properties (the clip above was posted to YouTube by Sacramento, Calif. TV station KCRA). These warnings usually originate with local mosquito control districts, and are not as far-fetched as they might sound (see previous post).

This could become a very big problem in some area's of the country. Neighbors need to monitor the area and make sure the contact their local city or county agency if they suspect a problem.

Down here in Austin, I can't see this being an issue. It's hot as heck and thanks to global climate change dry as bone.
