RE: Homemade Ollas: Thinking About Water Use in The Garden Part 2

in #earthdeeds6 years ago

Having dealt with constant standing water this year and the attendant mosquitoes, my first thought on the ollas was to cover the top of the neck with fine screening to keep the mosquitoes from breeding. If using flowerpots, the cover would work.

Oh gosh yes kids for sure!!! Absolutely. We have mosquitos here too. Very important to cover!!!

I hear ya @goldenoakfarm! We've had a very wet year and plenty of mosquitoes so that is a good point you bought up to get them covered also so the water doesn't evaporate of course.
