Nicer Weather Brings The Not So Nice Bugs
Thursday, June 18, 2009 16:52 | 59 viewsIs it just me or has anybody else noticed that the Mosquitoes are gigantic this season?
Just the other day I went out to enjoy some of the nice weather that we have been getting while on my break at work and all day it was fine, but as soon as the sun started to settle the Mosquitoes started coming out and swarming all around the place. I swear that if I let them they probably could have carried me away.
But it’s not just at work either. Just last night I was sitting outside of my place relaxing after work because it was a really nice evening, OK that should actually be night because it was after 10:30pm when I got home. But anyway, it was really nice out and I really didn’t want to sit around in the apartment.
I was fine till them damn Mosquitoes started to eat me alive.
I don’t have any Mosquito Repellent, so I had to end up going in because I couldn’t swat them fast enough. Plus having all the bug guts all over me was not very nice either.
Normally if I don’t have any Mosquito Repellent and have a few oranges in the place, rubbing the orange peel on you and getting the citrus on you will repel them for a bit. I’m not kidding, it actually works! Plus you smell good too.
I actually learned that little trick from the Internet.
You can even build your own Mosquito Trap too from this site called Mosquito Info. There you will find out everything there is to know about Mosquitoes and how to get rid of Mosquitoes. If you live around where I am or have a bad case of Mosquito infestation around your place them this is the place to learn how to combat against them.
But this is just my opinion and you’re entitled to it.

It’s funny you would mention that mosquitoes are getting bigger. I was just having this discussion with someone. When I was younger I remember them being tiny, but lately, they are absolutely giant. Maybe they’re evolving, who knows. I still prefer them over black flies, however.

@Single Views – Yea, black flies are annoying little buggers.
