This was posted on another list by the owner of a flyshop in California. Either this works or it is a hoax perpetuated by Proctor and Gamble *g*:


Pass this on to anyone who likes sitting out in the evening or when they're having a cook out.

So you don't like those pesky mosquitoes, especially now that they have the potential to carry the West Nile Virus?�

Here's a tip that was given at a recent gardening forum:

Put some water in a white dinner plate and add a couple drops of Lemon Fresh Joy dish detergent.� Set the dish on your porch, patio, or other outdoor area.

Not sure what attracts them, the lemon smell, the white plate color, or what, but mosquitoes flock to it, and� drop dead shortly after drinking the Lemon Fresh Joy/water mixture,and it is usually�within about 10 feet of the plate.


Check this out---it works just� super!

It may seem trivial, but it could help control mosquitoes around your� home, especially in the South and elsewhere where the West Nile virus is� reaching epidemic proportions in mosquitoes, birds, and humans.


Pass it on.
