I have on several occasions left my uncovered leg as an offering for them so that they would stop zzzzZzzzZZzZing in my ear while Iâm trying to sleep. They do it anyway. This is why we donât negotiate with terrorists.
I'm saving it for a little QT đŠ

Fuck mosquitos, theyâre the one species I want to go extinct.
SlartyBartFast@sh.itjust.works âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Hard agree
LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Too bad there are thousands of species. Broâs going for a mass extinction.

Worth it
theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Terrible idea if you are serious i have had people seriously suggest trying to do this it would be terrible on the ecosystem that feeds on them and their eggs including for example already engendered amphibians and thatâs just what we can predict.
guynamedzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Wasnât there a study recently that debunked the claim that mosquitoes were actually important?
Cethin@lemmy.zip âš2â© âšweeksâ© ago
Depends on where you are. On the east coast if the US, the largest mosquito species is invasive and not an important part of the ecosystem. There is a native species, but they arenât the ones cause issues. If we can destroy the invasive species specifically, thatâd be great.

I was Uruguay out in the country. There were more mosquitos that Iâd ever had to deal with. I decided to let them bite me. Eventually theyâll figure out that this blood isnât worth their time or something and just give up.
The next three days really sucked.

Not as much as those 'quitoes!

I visited my friend for two days in VA the past week and got murdered by mosquitoes
These east coast mosquitoes have hands and I was not prepared
Lucky_777@lemmy.world âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
They are so bad this year. Wtf is going on?
fossilesque@mander.xyz âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Literally climate change.
pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7068582/
Weather has a big impact on mosquito numbers & feeding behavior:
- Cooler temperatures = more mosquitoes
- Higher humidity = more mosquitoes
- More rainfall = more mosquitoes (for some species)
biologyinsights.com/at-what-temperature-are-mosquâŠ
Climate is moving north, thus your area is likely getting wetter and more humid.
FuckFascism@lemmy.world âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
Partially correct, mosquitos prefer warm humid environments with stagnant water to lay their eggs also they suck at flying so if itâs windy outside you wonât be bothered be many.
NeedyPlatter@lemmy.ca âš3â© âšweeksâ© ago
In the trail near my home they are downright relentless. Itâs a popular place people go why are you biting me as if youâll starve.
Wilco@lemmy.zip âš2â© âšweeksâ© ago
Did they just race swap Holli Would?
Why?
ouRKaoS@lemmy.today âš2â© âšweeksâ© ago

Ya know, I don't really mind the blood sucking part of mosquitoes. I don't like it, but that's their thing, so can't complain about that.
It's the dang diseases and the itch from hell that comes with it. Why can't they just suck blood in peace?
fushuan@lemmy.blahaj.zone âš2â© âšweeksâ© ago
Itâs a blood thinner. That itch comes because we are allergic to the blood thinner they inject so they can suck more easily.
Some people claim to not get bitten by mosquitoes ever. Thatâs false, they are simply not allergic to the blood thinner and nothing shows up after the mosquitoes leave, so they donât think they were bitten.

I just returned from three weeks of mostly tent camping. Those assholes wouldnât even let me close the tent door in the morning before landing on my legs.
