no-seems are a very tiny fly, travels in swarms, forms clouds around you, and are very hard to see until they land, bite and suck your blood.

Like mosquitoes in that neck of the woods, they do not bite one at a time, but in packs along with the mosquitoes, so instead of swatting, it is more effective to run your hand over your exposed skin turning it red with your blood ... Later, you have a hard time telling where your health skin begins and the itchy reddish white bite bumps end. After a few days even the bites have bites

You’ll love it there, as you get plenty of exercise running and swatting. Running? Yeah, the bears are very thin and very hungry, Just be sure you can outrun the guy next to you. Did I mention the wolves? Oh darn sorry.

That reminds me of a story some friends of ours told us about when they moved to Australia. As the ship they were on got closer to shore they were amazed by the friendly crowds waving at the new arrivals. When they got in closer than that the swarms of mosquitoes started attacking them as well. They realized that people were not waving at all just trying to defend themselves from the bugs.

They said that the place that they moved to had hoards of huge spiders that helped to keep the mosquitoes and flies under control but sometimes also caused painful bites and scared the crap out of them.
