You cover a wide range of topics. This one is outside of my perview but, is motivation to look deeper into different subject matters such as this. Thank you for the motivation. We talk about deversifying our financial portfolio & ignore that principal in our intellectual wealth.
LOL, I neglected my financial folio to invest in knowledge. Now it just frustrates me because no one wants to know or are in complete denial there is a problem with the ecology of the planet. Business as usual, full steam ahead!
We're trying to fight disease carrying mosquitos, while promoting beneficial insects like honey bees. There's got to be a way to take care of both. @ironshield
@ironshield - stop land clearance in rainforest areas would be a big start. Mozzies aren't fans of trees, but are fans of cleared areas where water gathers.
You will never eradicate malaria and dengue through mosquito spraying. It was a program developed so DDT could be flogged to 3rd world countries to get rid of the stock left when it was banned in western countries. I used to watch the spray teams in Solomon Islands dutifully spraying everywhere, and got dengue and malaria both. I also watched them regularly wash out the drums at one of the rivers. There were no fish in that estuary and the reefs off the mouth of the river were dead and devoid of life.
Shock me, an insecticide that kills insects, wow. Someone did their job right. This is ridiculous. Of course pesticides and herbicides effect things other than pests. The can of fly spray with the picture of the fly does not show you that it kills bees just as effectively, and now everyone sprays for roaches and spiders with residual sprays. The chemical industry has sold the lie insects are bad to sell their death in a can.
Now think, what is that doing to you? I refuse to allow pesticides, including fly spray, onto my property.

honey is very useful, but bees are dangerous. this is a great experience @dbroze
Bees aren't dangerous unless you frighten them. Aggressive bees though may be dangerous.
