Minnesota mosquitoes are relentless: about two weeks ago I was outside talking to a neighbor as we cleaned up branches after a storm at twilight (mosquite prime time).

In half-an-hour I suffered twelve mosquito bites on my left triceps between my short-sleeve shirt and the elbow: and my wife gave up counting after twenty-two on my legs (despite five confirmed-by-blood-smear hard kills by swatting).

Cheers!

The locals will tell you the skeeters are so big one could fly off with you. That’s a stretch as it actually takes two of ‘em.
