Interesting: full moon and mosquitoes: ----------------------- Mosquitoes � The OFF! Company sends these pointers about biting mosquitoes.

Bigger people are often more attractive to mosquitoes because these are larger targets, and they produce more mosquito attractants, namely CO2 and lactic acid.

Active or fidgety people also produce more CO2 and lactic acid.

Women are usually more attractive to mosquitoes than men because of the difference in hormones produced by the sexes.

Dark clothing attracts mosquitoes.

Some perfumes and other fragrances attract mosquitoes.

Movement increased mosquito biting up to 50% in some research tests.

Unkempt lawns and dense bushes are favorite resting sites for mosquitoes.

A full moon increased mosquito activity 500% in one study.

(OFF! Mosquito Bite Prevention Guide) -----------------

I may have to invest in a remote-controlled camera mounted on a toy four-wheeler for garden inspection... I've taken on at least 30 bites in the last couple days and I'm spraying myself shiny with OFF.
