Can't overestimate the importance of that last part. I swear, until you have spent time in an area prone to a lot of skeeters, you have no idea how something as simple as a short walk to take the trash out to the curb can turn into an absolute nightmare of buzzing, itching, slapping and cursing. Time in the yard without mosquitoes (and therefore without having to slather yourself in Cutter/Off) is a precious precious thing....
Funny story...about a year ago we recued a dog from a pit bull rescue group down here by the swamps...so we got to hear all the crap concerning the pits...meanwhile the dog was all happy running around the backyard chasing anything that even remotely resemble worth chasing... but then one day wife and I were sitting outside with the dog and my wife looks at me and say.. "Cooper doesn't look like a pit...wonder what he really is". So next time he went to the vet we asked for a DNA test...turns out the thing is a treeing walker coonhound. So that explained why the possums, squirrels, birds and cats don't come around the backyard anymore.
But the most interesting thing is that he chases mosquitoes also...so if you are sitting outside and he is chomping away you are mosquito free...who would have thought?
