swissie Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 The General is a blessing for this country. First, he declared war on corruption. Complete success, there is no more corruption in Thailand. Now, he has declared war on Mosquito's. Soon, there will be no more Mosquito's left in Thailand. (= Tightening Visa-Legislation for Mosquito's) . - What's next on the agenda: Get rid of long-term Farang residents, because they spend far less money on a daily / monthly basis than any tourist. To make it worse: Those long-term Farangs tend to spread diseases like "Democracy & Freedom of Speech" around. Far more dangerous than any "Mosquito-Related" disease. Wait and see. Cheers.

DrTuner Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 There go the water pots in Isaan. I guess he wants the water returned to reservoirs. Suck bamboo sprouts if you want to drink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RubbaJohnny Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 About time. Now will the call be heeded? I doubt it. The' re-aeducation' will encourage the insects females to only sting falangs and to compensate for less blood sucking to sting them twice as hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyumiii Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I am sure he means well, but he should realize that at least 80% of Thailand is a mosquito breeding ground. They are called rice farms. When you have standing water, mosquitos will reproduce. If he distroys the breeding grounds, there will be nothing left of Thailand but Bangkok and the tourist towns....they may have to go too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyumiii Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 This will have the tourists arriving in swarms soon.... Swarms of mosquitis if they arrive at all after this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billd766 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 This has been a Thai "initiative" for two decades. Any promises or "urgings" are merely Thai flatulence. Possibly because the previous elected governments never bothered to do anything about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazygreg44 Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 (edited) it was mentioned here before, and I can only repeat it to those who are afraid of the rice fields posing as mosquito breeding grounds. mosquitos do not spread more than 60 meter (another poster quoted 400 meters) away from their birthplace. So, even if there are trillions of mosquitos in the dense forests and in the rice fields, once you have successfully fought them back around your neighbourhood, these trillions will not fly all the way to your habitats. Even after the foggings, an occasional mozzie will buzz by our veranda in the south of the Isaan. I am surprised as the yearly fogging has actually reduced the number of mosquitos by large, compared to 5 years ago. I can sit on the veranda in the evenings and enjoy a drink. However one thing has changed, it is now mostly the tiger mosquitos (Dengue Fever carriers) I can spot, there are no more large ones throughout the mooban (which used to spread Malaria). It seems the poster is right who wrote that the tiger mozzies' larvae are under the water and by doing so effectively escape the fogging.

nidieunimaitre Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Now that the general has ordered the mosquitoes to stop biting, stinging, drilling or whatever they used to do, the problem is solved. The thread can be closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
