Just moved into my new place on a lake this week. The outdoors is literally infested with mayflies 24/7, to the point where we can not open the windows (little buggers get through screen mesh) or do much work outside.
Any advice on non-toxic or somewhat-less-toxic (in regards to the safety of our animals) methods of getting rid of these little beasts? I was thinking of how I once read about treating a lawn with liquid dish soap to kill mosquito larvae, wondering if that might work. Or good old Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Soap, as my relatives used to do when I was young.
Any help is appreciated-- thanks!
