Frugal blogger Karen Weideman of Thrifty Mommy has written up a few ways you can create a completely non-friendly environment for mosquitoes in your yard.
I don't know about you, but around June 15, all mosquitoes in my immediate geographic locale tend to have a party celebrating the return of the all-you-can-eat blood buffet at Wendy's house.
