I hate those things; I'm always getting bit. Worst was at Lake Havasu AZ, right on the Colorado river. I was camping on the shore, and had my Deet on. Didn't see any mosquitoes. Ok, time to take a late afternoon dip in the cool water... Didn't want to put deet back on and have it on my skin all night.
So I hop into the back of the pickup (has a shell) as I am too lazy to open the tent for a one-nighter. I turned on the lamp and (queue the horror movie music) there were at least 30 of those things on the inside windows! I was stuck in the back of my pickup with a hord of hungry mosquitoes! So I grabbed the paper towels and smashed as many as I could see; walls, windows, everywhere. By the time I think I got most of them, there were little red spats everywhere! It was the most sick place I have ever slept. And by mid next day, my legs and arms were covered with welts. They itched so bad. I haven't been back to Havasu since and I am in no hurry to go. And repellent goes with, everywhere. Always have some in the glovebox and some, yes in the back of the pickup.
Tzvia- rollin' slow...
