Oh god, and in my part of the world we've had a very unusually mild winter. And now a huge flood. Mosquitoes anyone? O_o
Know of a good repellent? Who knows what other menace will crawl out of it all... This season will be interesting.

man i hope it got cold enough here to thin them out they've been bad the last couple years! i learned today that keeping purple martin houses significantly reduces mosquitoes. purple martins eat bugs right out of the sky and are totally reliant on humans for housing. they return every year they are migratory birds

mosquitoes are my worst enemy all summer but at least we don't have it like alaska!

Polar Vortex may soon exterminate 90& 0f the Rocky Mountain, Great Plains and upper midwest citizens before this unending, unendurable USA winter is over. Snow & Cold are a nasty business for humans and animals and all will be glad to say adios to winter 2013-2014.
