That is a good thing!
We visited my aunt and uncle in Plaistow as a kid and I remember the mosquitoes very well. Terrifying. They were huge and there were a lot of the buggers. What made it bad was that we spent a lot of time in the back forest. Great memories in spite of the bugs.
We have very few this year (just north of San Francisco). My husband and I have commented on this several times. During the summer, we usually get dive bombed at night. Not this year. And I can water out in the yard without getting eaten.
