<DIV>I wonder if folks could bring extra traps with them? I used to have one (instructions say to put it in an area *away* from where you will be)... it looks like a clear plastic jar with a yellow hat. I am pretty sure I got mine at Wal-mart.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I wish everyone all the best at Pennsic... sounds like you've got a secondary War With Nature going on there! When my 5 girls are older I might venture a trip... there are more innovative ideas on comfort every year! *grin* :)</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It is my hope everyone remains safe and merry.</DIV>
