Re: [PyrNet-L] CARE: Mosquitoes

-I have a question that will probably seem really dumb but...
a lot of people seem to use apple cider vinegar on their pets but doesn't
this attract the flies?  Around here, when the apples get overripe and start
to ferment (smells just like cider vinegar) flies will attack the area.   Do
they go after the dogs with this on them?  We have such a horrible fly
problem that I sure don't want to make it worse.
