NOT SEEING ANYTHING AT THIS
POINT . THE ONLY ONE HERE IS
ON THE TIP OF NINETY
FOUR BROADWAY. SO PRETTY QUIET
FRIDAY MORNING COMMUTE TIME
TO CONNECT THE DOTS WHERE
WE MAKE SENSE OF THE HEADLINES
AFTER HEAVY RAINS. WE KNOW WHAT
COMES NEXT. MOSQUITOES. BUT WHAT
CAN WE EXPECT AND HOW CAN
WE STOP THEM ? LET'S CONNECT
THE DOTS. ENTOMOLOGIST AT TEXAS
A&M SAY THERE ARE THREE MAJOR
CATEGORIES OF BLOODSUCKERS AFTER
RAINFALL. THE FIRST WAVE
ARE FLOODWATER, MOSQUITOES WHEN
HEAVY RAIN LEAVES, PUDDLES
AND DITCHES AND LAWNS, THESE
MOSQUITOES QUICKLY EMERGE. THEY
ACTUALLY COME FROM EGGS THAT SIT
AROUND WAITING FOR THE RAIN,
SOMETIMES FOR YEARS. THEY'RE
TYPICALLY LARGER
TYPICALLY LARGER AND UNFORTUNATELY MORE
AGGRESSIVE. THESE ARE THE ONES
THAT ATTACK YOU FROM DUSK
TO DAWN. THE SECOND WAVE OR
CONTAINER OF MOSQUITOES. AS YOU
CAN GUESS, THEY COME FROM
CONTAINERS HOLDING STANDING
WATER WHILE THEY BITE ANY TIME
THEY PREFER NIGHTTIME WHEN LARGE
GROUPS GATHER, THE NEXT WAVE IS
KULAKS MOSQUITOES. THEY LIKE
STAGNANT WATER WITH LOTS
OF BACTERIA. THESE SUCKERS TEND
TO BE DISEASE CARRIERS. SO HOW
CAN YOU STOP THEM ? THE EXPERTS
AT A&M SAY GETTING RID
OF STANDING WATER IS A BIG ONE
AND USING LARVICIDE DUNK'S
AND STANDING WATER, YOU CAN'T
DRAIN LAUNER BARRIER SPRAYS ONLY
LAST FOR A LIMITED TIME
AND PLANTS THAT REPEL MOSQUITOES
LIKE CITRONELLA AND LAVENDER
ONLY PROTECT A LIMITED AREA.
SPRAY REPELLENTS AND COVERING
EXPOSED SKIN IS SOME OF THE MOST
EFFECTIVE ADVICE.
EFFECTIVE ADVICE. >> I AM STILL LOOKING FORWARD
TO MY FIRST BITE OF THE YEAR.
>> HAVE A GO WITH YOU. I GOT TWO
ALREADY I THINK, BUT YOU'RE
ALWAYS, ALWAYS A ONE UPPER.
ALWAYS A ONE UPPER. TWO UPPER.
I'LL GIVE YOU THAT .
>> HEY, 610 ATTACKS ON ASIAN
AMERICANS. THEY'VE GROWN
EXPONENTIALLY. WHAT HAPPENS
TO THE VICTIMS AFTER THE LOCAL
AGENCY WORKING TO HELP
THEM FIGHT BACK IN THE
COURTROOM?
COURTROOM? >> YOU CLASSIC SUMMER PLANS
MIGHT COST YOU SOME EXTRA MONEY
AND TIME. HOW YOU CAN GET YOUR
HANDS ON SOME BOATS, OUR TVS
AND A TV AND HOW DO I DO LIKE
THIS? YEAH, WE SPEAK
THE MINNESOTAS MOHAWK BEING
ON WHAT IT TAKES TO HAVE
THE TALLEST
