Interior British Columbia sounds similar. I used to work in the forest and they were so persistent, invasive, and aggressive. You had to just stop caring because they were relentless and virtually unstoppable. They'd end up in your clothing, in your hair, your nose, mouth... Sometimes the itch was so severe it burned.

I don't miss that. It usually peaked and calmed down with the season, but if it was warm enough they were always around.
