I just sprayed some yellow jackets today. I'm glad they aren't the size of those monsters.

Which is worse between skeeters and no see ums? Mosquitos you can see and hear coming. No see ums attack and leave without an opportunity to be smashed.

Mosquitoes drive you crazy and turn you evil.

While leading an Explorer canoe trip in Canada the mosquitoes were so bad many of us stopped swatting them and, instead, when we found one with it's nose sucking our blood, would pinch our skin, trapping it in there and unable to stop the flow of blood till it burst....

That was the first trip we made...we switched to Cutters for the following trips and the problem was much reduced...
