LMK when it gets bad enough that you feel a mosquito biting your leg and slap it, and you end up killing twenty of the little buggers and blood all over your hand.

But seriously, mozzies suck and I hope it's not Iceland's future. On the other side of the world here, in some parts it is getting too hot and dry for much in the way of mozzies. Not sure if that is a good thing either though.

I feel the pain. On a camping trip on the banks of the Mississippi one year, my son and his family slept overnight in his minivan, with just the rear window "wings" cracked open slightly for air. In the morning, we found out that he had battled hundreds of mosquitoes that found their way in during the night. There were blood splats EVERYWHERE on the fabric headliner and walls. Looked like a war zone.
My record is 51 with one slap of the hand.

That camping trip suuuuuuucked
