Cowards... everyone of you ... So you cowards think you're bad because you started in on me? At my house even? I still handled all of you, left 1 of you on the ground... I came out my door and I got attacked.. big deal! You're lucky I don't have any marks on my face. I have some on my arms, legs, and my neck but that's nothing! I bet you weren't expecting me to swing back since it was 8 against 1.. I'm too old for that crap. I'm not gonna lie, I was getting tired of your crap and just wanted to get back to the house. But, I kept on swinging, making sure that you got yours... All I have to say is, you attacked me, not once but twice you jerks! So I ran to the house, and you all followed me in, so this time I sprayed you! I had no choice. I hate mosquitoes!!! Always starting stuff! Unprovoked! Mosquitoes are not my friends!!!

Hope you have a conceal and carry permit for that .45 deet
Because of stories like this I'm thinking of carrying some kind of non-lethal electric shock (cattle prod) device
Here's one on Amazon, not sure if it's legal in all 50 states

Good Luck!
 
I've always been lucky--mosquitoes don't seem to like me very much. Generally they go for whoever I am with instead.

:)
 
I've got close combat and long range weapons for this.

Close combat is a bug zapper racket. I like the one from Harbor Freight. It's satisfying as all heck. It will also really wake you up if you smack your foot.

Long range is a "Bug-a-salt" gun that was gifted to me. I don't use this often but it's damned fun. I've spent a couple evenings sitting in a camp chair drinking rum and inflicting massive casualties on the locals.

Show no mercy.

Note to self: avoid Lenny Flank, LOL.

I found this looks like it would work thinking about getting it

I bought this from the same website about a month ago, it's awesome. recommended!
 
Mosquitos love me, often swarming me and leave everyone else next to me alone or with one or two bites. It's creepy! And weird ... I sometimes just have to leave while everyone else is feeling more or less fine and maybe wondering what the big deal is.

I have one of those bug rackets too; haven't tried it yet. Thanks for reminding me!

Also seen those bug salt thingies before, they sound fun!

Lucky, or seriously, do you eat lots of garlic??

In my youth, it seems I was like that; and I think it's because my mom cooked with lots of garlic which she stated was important to have everyday.
 
Not really a garlic fan.......

Apparently they just don't like the way I taste or something.

EDIT: I've also been immune to poison ivy since I was a kid. So maybe the bugs can sense some biochemical thingie in me that they don't like.
 
There are some very crafty skeeters at the campground I'm staying at (and am about to leave). They hang out in the vault toilet and wait for you to drop your pants.
 
interesting. mosquitoes leave me alone for the most part. I do also love me some garlic. I am also immune to poison ivy/oak. now my brother is just the opposite the skeeters love him and if as a kid I was out exploring mom couldn't wash my clothes with my brothers because he would get the poison ivy second hand. go figure. highdesertranger
 
I was in the YCC and found a product that you spray it on arms, legs, and neck. No bites...But they had included the dreaded "Red dye No. 2" so it was banned...Damnit.
 
I've always eaten lots of garlic, but it never stopped mosquitoes.

With poison oak. I might get a quick itch, but if I leave it alone, it fades quickly. My mother, though, actually gets out and out blisters from it, and it can leave her itchy and splotchy for days. I feel extremely lucky about that, because poison oak is absolutely everywhere here, and even if you don't touch any yourself, your dog will get it on his coat if you let him go outdoors, and then ... now you got it too.
 
I got my ear with one of those tennis racquet zappers and let me tell you, it works. I **almost** feel sorry for the little suckers....but not quite. ZAP! Take that, you vampire zombies!!!

We are almost done insulating the cargo trailer. I have about 5 rolls of aluminum tape making sure every tiny spot an insect can get in through doesn't exist. Of course leaving the RAMP DOOR open might undo that ....
