    After living there for 18 years I disagree. There were several times during the summers when even a bunch of citronella candles couldn't fight off the mosquitoes. I wish we had a screened in porch. Our neighbors did and it was awesome.

    Maybe I lived on the bay too long then. Sure hasn't been much bugs in the San Antonio area lately with all the wind and no rain.

    LED lights or yellow bulbs cuts down all the outside bugs except mosquitoes. Worked well for my non-screened in deck that's about 30 yards from a creek.

    Had yellow bulbs in Bryan, seemed to work well.

    I got the carpet in last night and spent first night there. ALl painting is done. Really need to take another few days off and get all the little stuff done.

    I've been trying to just do a little bit every day on mine. Slow, but it's progress.

    Stripping out all the 70s wood paneling in the garage and redoing the drywall. Then, lots of fluorescent lighting. Fun times.

    I have 90% of the electrical stuff done. Lots of issues but I have most of them worked out. I still have a random bedroom light switch that controls all my living room and another bedrooms plugs

    Got uverse yesterday and Internet is fast. I like it so far

    Jeremiah came over yesterday an we ripped out some garage lower cabinets that were junk and move some of the old uppers around. Got some material from work today and am going to build my work bench this weekend

    Buy some of the cutter or off that you spray with the hose, it works well. I would wait till after the rain tho, usually lasts several weeks.
