Mozzies

What's Hot

edited July 2019 in Off Topic
Just spent a week in British Columbia - beautiful scenery, lots to see and do, great food - only thing spoiling it was the mosquitoes. In Europe they attack Mrs9000 and leave me alone. In B.C. the bloodsucking little bastards have been eating me alive. Far more enthusiastic than their European cousins. 

(Mozzies have now joined wasps and slugs in the 'what use are they?' list.

Also, Google 'banana slug' if you want to see what the slugs look like over there.
I play guitar because I enjoy it rather than because I’m any good at it

    Wear stripes. Apparently they don't like them. Scientists worked this out from zebras not getting bitten!

    At least being eaten by lions doesn't leave you itching for days afterwards.

    Aren't mosquitoes about 8000 times as dangerous as lions?

    not if there's only 7999 of them. 

    I'm not locked in here with you, you are locked in here with me.

  • Get some Deet. Put it on before you go out.

    And when you get bitten, slap some Benadryl on there.

    They kill far more people annually, but I know which I'd prefer to be locked in a cage with
