    Pest control specialists prepare their gear before spraying over an area of base known as ”The Green Mile” at Ali Al Salem Air Base, Kuwait, Oct. 3, 2019. Twice a year, pest control specialists from the 386th ECES and 407th Expeditionary Support Squadron combine forces to spray a small section of AASAB that houses a significant amount of insects. Without regular maintenance, specialists say the base would experience a noticeable increase in insect populations across the installation, including disease-carrying mosquitos. Pest control spray before sunrise to increase the kill ratio before the insects dig underground. (U.S. Air Force photo by Senior Airman Lane T. Plummer)
