Well really mosquitoes are every where. I've not seen any of them from past 6 months as it is Summer.
But due to sudden outbreak of Rains here there are lot of mosquitoes here.
Here is how mosquitoes enter.
1.U'll not always close the doors. Isn't it? They enter through the Raising Curtains..
2. They hid in ur clothes in shelf.. bookshelf during day time..and come into action at night.
Keep an electronic mosquito bat..... Fun to use it.......Have a nice Day

Yes, I've also observed that. ALthough people say that mosquitoes are more in rainy season, actually there are more in summer. Thanks for your response.

I live in the city so we do not have very many mosquitoes at all. The pollution must have killed them all off. However, I grew up on a farm so I have seen my share of mosquitoes. They always got into our house and buzzed around our ears all night long. That is the most annoying thing!
cheers,

Yes the misquitos are so very bad where I live too. All you have to do is go outdoors and you will gt bite up.My Granddaughter & I went swimming in the pool in my back yard lasrt week, we were in the water for about 15 minutes and each of us got about 8 bites, so I told her to go inside the house and get some dryer sheets to put in our bathing suits to try to keep them off of us. You can not even enjoy the pool this year for the mosquitos.

Yes, the mosquitoes outdoors are somehow the ones that bite harder!

LOL! Sometimes when to many mosquitoes I give myself a challenge that I can kill most of them. One time I had killed around 40-43

Hi someincome.
I live in the Southeast Asia where our climate is tropical. Therefore, mosquitoes are our are just normal to us. However, we are still irritated by mosquito.
For some who lives in the village, you find that they usually have mosquito nets in their bedrooms. While in the city where mosquitoes are less visible to us, mosquito nets are just for interior decor.
I would recommend you to read what attracts mosquitoes to human. Also the treatment for mosquito bites. Maybe this will add up to our understanding even more.

There are no mosquitos in Scotland. Thank goodness. We have midgies that are little tiny things that bite you. I think they are similar to what you might call black flies.
I ain't seen any yet though but we aren't having the best weather.
When I was in Canada though the mosquitos attacked me something awful and the bites went up like golf balls.
I read a tip the other day which may help you. Spray all your nets with repellent and I think you will find that the things don't get in.

I live in the UK, and here we have 'gnats', which are a sort of pathetic version of a mosquito. We get swarms of them in the Summer and Autumn, but their bites are much less irritating than the bite of a mosquito. Where I am at the moment, I have a greater problem with house-flies, bluebottles and horseflies than with biting insects - and they are annoying, with such a loud buzz, and they carry so much disease that I am ashamed to see them in my house! One had managed to get into the freezer recently, and must have laid eggs in there, because there were maggots - needless to say we called someone in to remove the freezer immediately!
Now that Summer is here we'll soon be getting lots of bees and wasps and other nasty stinging insects - I'm such a baby when it comes to things like that! I'll have to walk around with a can of bugspray in my pocket now until Winter comes! :o)

I believe that you have good pest control systems over there to take care of mosquitoes. Over here the municipal corporation people never show up!

I do not have any mosquitos in my house, but they are everywher outdoors. You can get a bug light, they work well, or citranella candels.Also Avon Skin so soft is good to put on you.tyme oil,rosemary oil,garlic oil,clove oil,castor oil,perrerment oil,cinnamon oil,lavender oil will also help.
