We've had more rain than usual this year. Mosquitoes are really thick. I need a net around me when I am working around the farm.

You can't sit out close to sunset where I live. Swarms of mosquitos will suck every last drop of your blood.

Don't want to make others jelly, but we have virtually none out here on the south coast.



Herm, I believe you also get "No-see-ems". Encountered them on reserve in  Qu'Appelle Valley reserve above Broadview

Prairie skitters are tiny little farts.

Must be the nature of our corner .. few if any swamps or even fresh water for that matter



Few flies also. I have never used window screens here. Might get a 1/2 dozen bees and / or wasps a year coming in is about it



AC is rare here as temps might get uncomfortable for a week or 2 in a hot summer but nothing a temporary fan won't cure, so windows are always open from spring to fall



I lived in Lethbridge a while so know how hot and mosquito-filled S. Alberta can be

The only place in Barrie that isn't infested with mosquitoes in the summer is along Lake Simcoe. Everywhere else means carrying bug repellent in your vehicle.



And AC in my condo is a must from the end of May until at least mid September.

I find it hard to believe any place is worse than Winnipeg for mosquitoes. We bathe in Muskol.

We have some mosquitos down the coast at Loch Sport which tried out for the original cast of the Wizard of Oz as the flying monkeys...

Australia really is the lucky country. Even insects have bling.

I was having a sip of Scotch on my balcony last night and when I was almost abducted by a couple of masked mosquitoes.
