Mossies or Little Flies


Some call them “little flies,” since this is the literal translation of their name, Bear Grylls calls them “mossies,” and I call them blood-sucking little turds that serve no purpose on this planet.

Ok, I might have gotten a little carried away there.

Whatever you call them, mosquitoes by any other name are still mosquitoes. They still have slender segmented bodies, a single pair of wings, three pairs of legs that resemble strands of hair more than they do legs, and elongated mouthparts that make it better to eat you with, my dear. Or at least chomp you and suck your blood.

Given the time of year, mossies are out in full force, and unless you do something about it, they won’t be going away any time soon, especially not during these beautiful months when the weather makes for a perfect evening outdoors. So, what can be done about these darn little flies? Read on, peeps. You know this bug blogger won’t leave you hangin’!

On a larger scale, there is much that can be done for mosquito control.
