Post something Weird or Random

In Darwin you quite often see community service announcements on TV telling you not to leave containers with water lying around because they provide breeding habitats for mosquitoes. Anyone that has lived there for a while knows that these messages are created by clueless idiots from down south.

In the tropics leaf litter is moist enough to support mosquito larvae and that’s where they breed. Any water in containers in your yard will very quickly be surrounded by birds, frogs and lizards and the mosquitoes don’t stand a chance.
kakadu camp site was dry ,you used water only washing clothing or skin in the daylight, it drained away ,but mosquitoes oy vey.
I was in a shared room ,with mosquito mesh on the windows ,the people in tents! one womans bites were like scifi,they were horrendous,some people have this strange mindset that nature almost doesn't exist

My skin doesn't react to mosquito bites, but getting Ross River Virus was quite unpleasant. It never goes away, it comes back and flattens you again every few years.

Is this at the end of 'the wet' or the beginning ?:flushed:
Neither, it's in the temperate climes. The Murray River flooding. Happens every 15 years or so, although every time people act like it's never happened before. I just liked the picture, the way the road is being eaten away.
