Re: “If ya have old tires that have water ”

Hm. I didn't think about tires. There are a couple. One was used years ago as a swing. I should probably cut it down and get rid of it. The other covers my septic cap - so that I never accidentally mow over it. I should put some oil into that one.

Aside from those, there isn't anything nearby that's obvious. But the forest isn't far in that direction, and water could always pool on some of the fallen or dead trees. The biggest issue, though, is that if you continue a bit further - say a hundred yards into the woods, the little creek that meanders that direction slows down and turns swampy. I've got a muddy area that's perhaps 50' x 50' with very little water flow. Mosquitoes probably love it.

...if ya have stagnate ponds of water ya can't drain a small amount of oil will coat the surface and starve the mosquito larvae of oxygen. If ya have old tires that have water in them ya has to put a little oil in em as well. Ya can never get all the water out of them unless ya burn em which causes the environmental whacko's to have a fit. When they come around complaining tell em you is cooking spotted owls over burning auto tires. Then ya can just call em an ambulance.
