John, what is this MS bacillus of which you speak? I am
only familiar with bacillus thuringiensis as an
insecticide.

not John, but Milky Spore is Bacillus popillae. Bacillus
thuringiesis is one of a large family where different types
work better on certain insects. Bt kills caterpillers
(unfortunately it's not selective which caterpillers). Bti (Bt
israeliensis) kills mosquito larvae.

It wasn't there again today
The host resolved to NSA.
