Anyone here an entomologist? Anyone? Or expert in NYC mosquitoes?

Dude, you're one of us.

/mnspeak

They migrated and found that sweet, sweet Minnesota blood they love.

Make a sport of it. These are kinda fun:

 

Of course I just read a two-year-old story about a building on the UWS that was invaded by a breed that comes up from the sewers and feasts year-round. Ach.

Machine, how have I never seen those rackets? I want one, although it doesn't solve my issue of what to do when sleeping. Maybe arrange it so it's resting a few inches above my head.

 

This one is adjustable so it might provide better coverage when sleeping:



A friend has a handheld zapper up at his cabin. Works quite well. Of course as day turns into night and drinks flow it gets 'tested' on unsuspecting human subjects.

 

Consider yourself fortunate it has not gotten worse.

When I was single I had a one bedroom apartment in SF that had a separate kitchen and small dining area; now I was not the cleanest guy, I get that, but literally out of nowhere I started getting a ton of flies, within a day it very quickly became an infestation, all I could do was detonate a couple of those "bug bombs" from Raid with the door closed and not go in there for a day or two. Bam everything dead and gone, but damn it was weird, looking at the closed room for a day and wondering what the h*ll just happened?

Bomb it like your wife plans on doing. Good luck.

 

Ten mosquitoes and you're complaining??

You need to turn in your Native Minnesotan card!



Get a citronella candle.

 

I don't know why, but when I read the thread title, I thought of this.
