I can't remember a time I've seen so many mosquitoes here in northern Indiana. Got out of the car last night and there were easily 15 just flying around in broad daylight. Just swarms of them, and I'm not in the woods either. Forget about zombies....  |

Those huge Gallinipper mosquitos they have down in Florida and in some places in Minnisota have the be the worst ones. They'll bite through clothes and are very aggressive. Deet doesn't repel them either. Worst is they don't have a anesthetic in their saliva so when they dig in with their long snouts it is like someone sticking you deep with a nail.
Around here where I live we have basically three types of mosquitos, two are the home grown variety and a new comer from Asia now. The little itty bitty ones I like to call "Ankle Biters" as they tend to not go much higher than about 6 inches or so above the ground. Then there are the regular mosquitos that tend to buzz past your ears giving you some warning maybe. The Asian ones tend to be pretty aggressive and will bite through thin clothing like T-shirts etc. But fortunately we don't have any of those vicious Gallinippers around here yet.
