I think for good reason, based on ethical intuition, that we are more impressed by the kind-hearted soul who nets the flies to let them out of the house alive versus the person hunting them down for certain chemical death with a bottle raid. Even if our great White Suburban hunter of houseflies uses a fly-swatter for ecological reasons, the more admirable course pertains to the person who uses a butterfly net to simply capture the fly for relocation outside.

The travel industry is always changing. It is better to let us know where and when you need to go from and where and when you need to arrive and we will provide you with your choices which can be sorted by airline, price, or duration.

Somewhere there is someone just like you who has become a pilot. Virtually every occupational group and every geographic location in the nation is represented among those men and women who hold a pilot’s license. Pilots range in age from their middle teens to senior citizens.

We have both in fair supply, and we co-exist using our knowledge of their habits. Preparation and attitude is everything when encountering either species. Upon arrival at the lodge, you will be given a bear safety talk where you'll learn about being a visitor in bear country. Regarding bugs, we provide mosquito headnets, and recommend that you wear tightly woven, light clothing for maximum comfort.

We have recently began a pilot program to assist local extension agents and private interest groups to participate in acquiring their own phorid "infections." Fire ants are collected in the area to be treated with phorids according to our instructions. Ants are separated from soil at Brackenridge Field Laboratory. We show participants where to place out trays of ants in phorid fly "hot spots." The flies will arrive and attack the fire ant workers.

Keep flies at bay by covering your newly added kitchen scraps with paper or decomposed waste from the pile.

We have never seen mosquitoes at the Kasbah but they do occur in other parts of Morocco. Flies, especially during the summer months, are very common.

Despite rumors, mosquitoes are not the Alaska State bird. We are located in a comparatively dry region of the state with less than 2 inches of rainfall a month. However, we advise the use of insect repellant on the fly-out trips. No worries, we have plenty of insect repellant available at the lodge.
