Mosquitos are bastards. The only single thing that annoys me about going to Dalmatia a fair bit is those little things.
Made the mistake of not wearing long trousers whilst trying to tackle the semi-jungle my garden had become after not being in the house for a year and ended up with numerous bites which cause me no end of grief for the rest of my stay.
I spend many a happy hour doing a mosquito check in the house every night and there are few more satisfying things that squashing the little buggers dead.
We have every type of gadget going to keep them away but one or two always get through.
Sorry for my ranting. As you where.

Good news, not, for mozzies, the Today programme is just now going to talk about the million pond project aimed at doubling the number of ponds in the UK. Bring back DDT and spraying water surfaces with fuel oil.
Bear in mind that we now have many potential carriers of the malarial parasites in Britain.

"Mosquitos are bastards."
Thanks Matthew. I'm sitting in the Quiet Study Area of my local library reading these! People are looking at me now, wondering why I'm snotting over my laptop with an idiotic grin on my face.

"Mosquitos are bastards." Thanks Matthew. I'm sitting in the Quiet Study Area of my local library reading these! People are looking at me now, wondering why I'm snotting over my laptop with an idiotic grin on my face. I make no apology ! I loathe the poxy little things with a passion that can border on the almost paranoid and have every invention known to mankind. I once watched a charity appeal about how you could donate money which would help to buy Mosquito nets, that were soaked in some sort of repellent for African villagers to put up and help combat Maleria and so on. And I immediately began to try and plot how I could some how swipe a few for my own selfish first world problem of them annoying me on holiday (the Mosquitos, not the African villagers who I am sure are charming people). |
