do you have a rain barrell?
we got one and i love it. I am amazed by how much water it has collected so far. Do you have them piggy backed for over flow? are mosquitos an issue? how should i keep water "fresh"?

sometimes all you really need in life is a pink wig.
Re: do you have a rain barrell?
Ours has a lid & the downspout goes directly into it. So, mosquitos aren't an issue. If you have one w/out a lid, put a fine mesh screen on the top. The screen will prevent debris from getting in & mosquitos from laying eggs.
We have ours overflow into a drain, but I want to get another barrel (and that would would overflow into a drain). Sometimes leaves get in & I don't worry about it. I mean, the water is for your plants, you're not drinking it, so freshness isn't really a concern.
