Mosquito ~ Control 2015 response

TIRRA should indeed address the mosquito issue. The flapper valve would be a good starting point but they could also help individual property owners like myself - with advice, not money - where there are ponds where we might be able to do something constructive. In my case for example, would application of an anti-mosquito product harm our large resident turtles?

Editor's note: the turtles at Barrs' are not native to Thetis Island, but happy rescues from the SPCA many years ago.
