Sorry this is happening.

My prayers for you

Yea fuck mosquitos, but also what the hell are those people thinking? Windows wide open, AND lights on? Fuck that shit, too. Mosquitos are born to seek out our blood, so they get a gold star for taking advantage of human's foolishness, which were born with far larger brains.

 

[daffyduck]

Windows wide open, with no mesh screens?

 

[Mossybrew]

Lol @ this unfortunate and entirely preventable situation.

A queen wasp got into my house last year. She was as big as the alien queen in Aliens. Made the same breathing sound too.

These are great
I travel with two
Not the big ones, have different solutions for home.

Only trick is you can't fly with the mini propane tanks.

I went to the Philippines in some remote mountain village with a group and we stayed at a church and it was essentially just an open building where there was just a large cut outs for windows. Mosquitos completely wrecked us from head to toe. Pretty much didn't get any sleep for the first couple days. I know the struggle.

Sleep naked. No sheets or covers. Then, before bed, cover every inch of your body in olive oil.

You're welcome.

Vitamin B supplements prevent mosquito bites, something about Vitamin B in the bloodsteam that mosquitos dont like.

Lol. I don't do that. I live in England and mosquitoes aren't an issue.

I was just thinking of random ideas. I have no idea if sleeping naked and covered in olive oil will work. I'm hoping the OP tries it out and reports back.

If anything it'll make sex a lot better.

How do they know you have vitamin B in your bloodstream before they bite you?

[MMaRsu]

I just slept in my car for the rest of the night , not great but no fucking mosquitos there

 

[Geomancer86]

If you don't want to get mosquito tablets the best you can do is have a oscillating fan covering your bed, mosquitoes hate wind, enough to keep them away.

 

[Dr.Morris79]

No i'm with you, these things are evil bastards. You'll be drifiting off thinking you can hear a motorbike in the distance and next thing you know is this evil bastid is in your face..

Had it so many times on holiday and at home..

Evil cunt things. Then you wake up itching like a bastid. I hate em.

 

[Sonik]

Replaceable liquid repellents are value for money and keep these fuckers away, my windows is always open with lights on and they never bother me

 

[BossLackey]

Made in Africa where skeeters are the size of dogs, so you know this shit works. Apparently good for you skin too for a lot of reasons.

Wash up with this and they'll think thrice before touching you again.

Always a good reason to think things lmao. It's good for eczema, so you're wrong.

Good, bad, whatever. I want them all to die. There is zero reason for these arseholes lol!

They're worse than fleas! Even now while i'm on holiday i'm covered in these damn bites!!!!

 

[Badlucktroll]

If all mosquitos are exterminated i am afraid shit like this will take its place

 

[Sonik]

why leave lights on?

Because I'm on my PC, I use them all night not just when I go to sleep

 

[SirTerry-T]

And/or

That'll help keep the fuckers at bay

Use it as a spread on toast ...don't spread it on yourself for fucks sake, that would just be foolish.

 

[GloveSlap]

I went to a relative's house when i was a kid and they had no clue their house was infested with fleas. Some people are just oblivious. It might be worse than the people who don't realize their smoke detector is chirping every 30 seconds.

 

[ForAcademicPurposes]

You gottta get them before they get you, OP.

 

[navii]

Yah, I never move into a place without fly screens or aircon, preferably both.

 

[AlteredForms]

Mosquitos are probably the largest killer of humanity. Think about the 10s of millions throughoutt the ages that have died due to the fuckers. Near to a million people still die yearly thanks to malaria and other associated diseases.

 

[GymWolf]

The funny thing is that even the most advanced earplugs can't cover their weird frequency rumor so you still hear the fucking sound of the cunts flying around your head.

Sicily is full choke of mosquitos.

 

[thefool]

Ceiling fans are a simple effective solution. I've always been curious why it never gained traction in europe, namely in the south.

 

[Grildon Tundy]

Sounds like we could target disease vector mosquito species with low risk. This article mentions there will always be unknown impacts but it's been done before in a few regions without major repercussions.

You must have some pussy ass mosquitos where you live because i have ceiling fans at work and in the kitchen and they do jack shit for mosquitos.

 

[Geomancer86]

The only thing that a fan does is disrupt mosquitos enough so they cannot hover over your skin and bite you with ease... you will still see a cloud of mosquitoes if you don't kill them with some kind of poison.

The same with an oscillating fan pointing to your bed, you only avoid to get bites and the annoying sound over your ears, but they will still hover around your body all night waiting for the fan to go off. That's why you also have some tablets/poison on during the night.

 

[Spukc]

i coat myself in peanut butter

 

[Batiman]

I hope they bite up you’re asshole.

Poor little critters. Always being misjudged.

Now wasps on the other hand can rot in hell. I can’t even chill on my balcony without me dancing around like a little girl swinging my arms around. They’re brutal this week. I got swarmed at the gas station the other day too. Random people looking at me like I’m fighting an invisible enemy. I run back in my car and I swear it’s like those horror movie tropes where the villain is in the back seat ready fro round 2.

Right now I’m on vacation and chilling at sisters. I can’t even chill by the pool. These fuckers are just angry and out for blood. I got bitten last year on my foot and it sucked

Well i guess it doesn't work with all mosquitos.

Maybe it work with small ones, but not with big ass tigers

Sorry, not blood, its something to do with your skin that Vitamin B alters.

Okay, I think I'm picking up what you're laying down, bro.

You're saying I don't need vitamin B per se... I merely need YOUR SKIN

 

[FunkMiller]

Where the fuck are you, OP? Because anywhere that gets mosquitos and constant hot weather should have screens at the very least - and ideally air con.

Parts of Australia would be unbearable without both.

 

[KrakenIPA]

The little Tigers are the worst they know exactly where your capillaries exist. I do DDT. It causes a lot of health problems but those are nothing when compared to watching a skeeter land on you, try to taste you, and then fly away.

 

[ClanOfNone]

My screened porch has one TINY lil hole in the top of it where a piece of roofing tile fell through when the landlord replaced the roof.
99.9% of the porch is screened, and I'll be damned if the little fuckers don't pour in through that tiny hole.

Mosquitos can only reproduce in standing/still waters... I cannot imagine the first world being so lazy to let open containers with water in their backyards.
