Friendly Foil Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Hello watumms. When I woke up this morning, I discovered three mosquito bites on my right forearm and two on my left. I mean, I always get bitten a lot by these dudes during the summer, but five in one night? Is this shit normal? Is there an easy way to get rid of mosquitoes? Please help me. This is a serious issue!

murve33 Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Destroy any pools of stagnant water. Capture a bunch of bats, and put them in your belfry. Sleep under a mosquito net. They're awful in my neck-of-the-woods. And bigger apparently. Every once in a while when I get a bite it flares up to the size of a nickel.

Audioblysk Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 5 in one night is not uncommon if your outdoors where I live. Close your windows during the day, wear some DEET if need be. Mosquitoes breed in small ponds or clogged gutters alot in suburban areas so it might be worth checking out some stuff around your place to see if its a breeding ground. I had a ton growing in this clogged gutter in a place I used to live, poured some bleach in that fucker and all the larvae died. Other things that ward off mosquitoes: Weed smoke, or any smoke for that matter. Have a fan blowing well in your room, they fly like shit. Also, check out mosquito traps, they work well.

Friendly Foil Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 Nope, not outdoors. This is inside my room, at night, closed door, closed window. No ponds or anything around here either. I'm pretty sure this is just one (or more), hiding in my room at day, and then coming out at night to suck my delicious blood. It's the number of bites that puzzles me. But, if I start smoking loads of weed and cigarettes, the mosquitoes will go away? Seems like the only logical solution right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audioblysk Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 Run a box fan blowing on you or generally keeping the air of the room moving well and the mosquitoes wont be able to bite, they are terrible flyers compared to most bugs. They don't like smoke so its worth a shot right? whats the worst that can happen, you get stoned? Also check for spiders, bedbugs or any other creepy crawly. Grab a mosquito trap from the hardware store if need be, they were super effective in the last place I lived. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patternoverlap Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 had the same problem. most likely it is fleas, as it was in my case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaarg Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 As long as it's mosquitoes and not bedbugs you're ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendly Foil Posted August 27, 2012 Author Share Posted August 27, 2012 If it were bedbugs, there would be crap and blood from them all over the place. At least, that's what National Geographic told me a while back. that show was nasty. I'm counting on it being mosquitoes so far. If not, I'll burn down the house.

Guest sine Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 An Australian friend once told me that if you take one brewers yeast tablet per day during mozzy season they won't bite you.Theydon't like the smell apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soloman Tump Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 plenty of Mozzies around here at the moment. Peaked at 8 bites, but thankfully calmed down on me now... have the evening swatting session in the bedroom before sleep, plenty of gross marks on the walls Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GORDO Posted August 27, 2012 Share Posted August 27, 2012 I don't mind the bites so much but why are we so damn sensitive to the fucking buzz of their flight?, the ceiling could fall on top of me and it would wake me up slower than a freaking mosquito flying near my ear. I really really hate mosquitos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan C Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Five? I woke up the other night with about fifty of the fucking things on me the other day. What I wouldn't do for just five! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zephyr_Nova Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I think they like perfume/cologne, so either don't wear that shit or find someone who does and get them to sleep in the same room as you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergeantk Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I think they like perfume/cologne, so either don't wear that shit or find someone who does and get them to sleep in the same room as you. sometimes they are just attracted to natural scents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Friendly Foil Posted August 28, 2012 Author Share Posted August 28, 2012 Well, only got one bite on my shoulder last night, and I heard a mosquito before I fell asleep. I think that rules out bedbugs and all that other nasty shit... thank jebus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audioblysk Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Mosquitoes hate the smell of human B.O. too I guess. I agree with removing your blood though, its the most practical option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest nene multiple assgasms Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 retire early, close the door to your room, and spend an hour or two hunting down the ones in your room before you go to sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kinski Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 5 bites is probably just one mosquito having a feast, nothing to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
