Live in one of those "rural suburbs" (line of houses surrounded by fields) in Louisiana.

Was smokin a bowl outside last night. Saw the mosquito truck come down the road, spraying a fog of insecticides to keep the population down and all I can think is "if we didn't flatten everything for miles around with empty lawns and mono crops, we'd still have enough dragonflies to eat the mosquitoes instead of spraying chemicals into our air that kill the dragonflies too"

Yea, that's what we call it around here. Just a regular truck with an IBC of insecticides and a low-pressure sprayer that drives around once a week to kill the swarms of mosquitoes along with every other insect in the area.
