Hey everyone.
Has anyone noticed the veritable disappearance of mosquitoes this summer? When the weather began warming up a few months ago I remember being pestered by them, but not since. What's up with that? |

You had to just go and say this didn't you? lol. I bought this plug in a couple months ago, and I was thoroughly convinced that I wasn't getting bit like last year because of it. I thought I stumbled across the best mosquito killing device EVER! But, Maybe there ARE less mogis around this year and my plug-in is a scam like I thought it was before I bought it.
Anyway, maybe you are on to something about there being less of them around...I sure haven't gotten bit that much at all this summer. |

You'd think there'd be more of them, too, with all of the rain we've gotten. |

Exactly! With this kind of weather I would expect it to be heaven for them.
Yet I just camped at 3 different locations deep in the mountains of Gangwon-do and didn't see a single one of them. |

The radiation in the rain from Japan wiped them all out. |

Don't worry, they'll be back for September, October and November. |

All the rain is exactly what is keeping them away. With the constant downpours there is no stagnant water for them to breed in. |

Oh yes. All this rain is perfect for laying eggs. They'll be back when the rain stops. |

I thought it was because I moved into a high-rise ... but I haven't noticed many outside either. |

Thanks very much everyone for your information. How interesting! Now I suppose we can change the name of the song to "The Itsy Bitsy Mosquito" LOL  |
