    OMG, they are swarming everywhere! What is up with that? I guess from all of the rain. We do not have any standing water around my house or anything but I can't help but notice the mosquito population has grown. My kids cannot even go outside without having them swarm us. My poor dog cannot even enjoy going out without having them swarm him too. I must have killed 5 in my house today already. They are driving my crazy in my house!
    Is anyone else noticing the increase of mosquitos?

    I haven't noticed any either and there is a pond behind our house so I'm surprised.

    We too are getting eaten alive at this house. Have a creek behind the house, a pool, and a fountain so I'm thinking some water for sure may be the issue. Just seems like a whole lot of the little buggers.

    I'm surprised anyone else is having problems. I was convinced every little bugger in NC had taken a good bite out of me and filled up :mrgreen:

    Mom,
    Can we blame Noah for bringing them onto the Ark? I mean, couldn't he have just left the skeeters off the boat? j/k :)

    The standing water is where they skeeters lay eggs and multiply. Ants are looking for a drier place.

    It's peculiar how they are. They'll bite me quickly, but my kid they won't touch.
