Default Re: Since moving south I haven't seen a green tree frog

I suspect my army of lizards and the bluish skink (who really should go back outside) along with the snakes help keep the bad bugs in check. I am very careful to never have standing water and I don't live a creek or stream so mosquitoes don't seem to be in issue. Of course, they could be but I wouldn't know. I'm one of those folks they don't bite unless they're really desperate. And fleas also leave me alone. What's my payback? Bees, yellow jackets and wasps hunt me down.

BTW, I haven't caught a Cuban yet; the one hunkered down in my banana plant apparently didn't appreciate a dose of wasp spray because he/she has gone into seclusion. Gone completely? I don't believe so; something makes quite a racket around dusk daily.
