Has someone actually made a study determining the difference between an aggressive and passive mosquito?
Jesus. Writers suck.

aren't transmitting many diseases.
Not many, just a few like malaria, west nile virus and dengue fever.........Whew, we dodged a bullet.

I live on Oak Island, NC, which was near the hurricane’s bullseye. Warnings have been posted against swimming at the beaches here.
As I posted on Facebook: “Come for the filthy water. Stay for the mosquitoes!”

I remember those clouds of DDT.

The ones I’m dealing with now are more aggressive because as soon as you step outside they swarm you. Its like the walking dead with wings!

When I used to live on the Atlantic Coast I loved to walk the beaches right after a heavy storm and find all kinds of stuff washed up on shore.
I now live on the Gulf Coast and there isn’t much on the beach after a storm like on the Atlantic side.......

I walk my dog on the beach a couple of times a day, and have been seeing lots of interesting stuff since the hurricane, including some strange-looking fish!

I even once found a dead sea turtle that was HUGE............

I’ve heard about Alaskan mosquitos.
My sister and her friend were vacationing in Alaska and trying to get a picture of Mt. McKinley. They got there in the evening - and were chased into their tent by clouds of enormous mosquitoes!
The mosquitoes continued to try attacking through the sides of the tent all night!
In the morning, they got up, threw the tent in the truck - with mosquitoes still attached - snapped their picture (Mt. McKinley had a rare clear day where you could see to the summit!) then drove away as fast as they could.
