And you are being molested by a mosquito that you swat at and it just comes back. Do you opt for the hairspray and lighter to get rid of it?

Andy, you should be thankful that at least one life form has taken an interest in you.

Wait for it to land on your forehead then hit it with a rock.

Lucky you...it's a mesquito. I had a horsefly bumble into my house the other night and it sucked. They can do 120 mph. They are big. They are LOUD.... and they bite out a plug of skin to get to blood. They can bite through horse hide... I hit that thing solid flat against the wall with a fly swatter and it just laughed. I later shot it with a good blast of OFF with 23% deet. It went down....30 minutes later it was buzzing around in my trash can. Had to take my trash can outside and let the damned thing go.

That is too funny! There are Palmetto bugs that fly around here in May and June during their mating season, that I swear you could put a saddle on and ride! Ewwwwwww!

I have seen those Ms. SunShine...they are impressive....do they bite? Mosquitos suck....especially the Tiger females. They are agressive. Out here in the middle of nowhere... It is the things you don't hear or know they are there that really jack you up in bed. Scorpions....too many times to count. Black Widow...I don't wanna talk about it. Chiggers...Like the worst mosquito bite but it lasts about 5-7 days if you don't put glue on it to suffocate them. They attack in packs.

Oh Wow!. Palmettos don't bite they are simply disgusting and carry disease from the "stuff" they walk in....You can feed them Boric Acid and watch them explode. LOL Now, Chiggers? I had my first encounter with them behind the Emergency Vet Clinic one night. Stupid me, told my girlfriend, "They must have a lot of fleas back behind that clinic where I took my dog to pee that night....Ha ha.. she is an experience animal lady, boards horses, so she knew what they were right away. I put toothpaste on them at work to stop the itch. Gee looks like we are getting an education out of this blog...Great!

Not the slick back though...i would never laugh at the slick back.

Chiggers are a tiny insect that burys just below the skin to do thier feeding and breeding. They are about the size of a single grain of sand. You cant see them. But you scratch till you bleed them out after a week or two. Or you put any kind of glue over the spot and it suffocates them in about 3-4 days. Sorry.....I meant chigroes. :)
