Our people finally sorted it out a couple weeks later. The chemical, which, by the way, cut down the number of
mosquitoes exponentially, had the unfortunate side effect
of killing off this little wasp - I've got the scientific name
for it somewhere in my report here, if you're interested
that preyed on a type of caterpillar that in turn ate palm
leaves. Well, with the wasps gone, the caterpillars hatched
out with nothing to keep them in check and chewed the
roofs to pieces, and that was unfortunate, we admit it, and
we had a real cost overrun on replacing those roofs with
tin... but the people were happier, I think, in the long run,
because let's face it, no matter how tightly you weave
those palm leaves, they're just not going to keep the water
out like tin. Of course, nothing's perfect, and we had a lot
of complaints about the rain drumming on the panels,
people unable to sleep and what-have-you....
