The mosquito never was bo
, much in evidence in Tacoma. It's
the damp season. He thrives on
moisture. Whenever there are
"wigglers in the worter" there
will be mosquitoes in' the air.
Every rain barrel and pond Is a
big producer.- If these are not
handy he is content to be born in
the grass if it is a little damp,
I Dr. Janes, city health officer,
says to mitigate the pest decrease
" the moisture. Stop sprinkling.
Then pour gerosene on all rain
barrels and pools, or better still
drain them and if J. Pluvlu's can
be prevailed on to let up with hi
sprinkling can some progress will
be made.
But if the mosquito does bite
you, don't scratch.
That may lead to blood poison.
;.s "All itching from mosquito
•bites or stings of bees or from
vegetable poison is caused by
poison, which Is an acid," said
• Dr. Janes today. •
"To neutralize it use an alkali.
The most effective one that Is
present In every household ■is
common soda. Dissolve *It in
■ water and bathe the bite.
"It is as good as anything you
can do."
