The spray trucks are making their way through Sienna now.

ETA: they drove down around our cul-de-sac about 20 minutes ago. They're moving faster than expected!

Something happened in League City. I stepped outside and only got bitten once. I suspect the city has sprayed. I have only found 1 mosquito in the house today instead of the little flight squadron I was expecting.

Well, sorry to say that the spraying last night didn't help all that much. They are back since it started warming up this morning.

These mosquitoes are so aggressive, they were biting me through my clothes on the soccer field last night. That's a first.

They are spraying. They drove down my street last night. However, we are next to the bayou, so maybe they are just hitting hot spots.Normally we get a truck three times a week in the summer.
