Post your scores.

It was 6-2 in their favor last night, 5-1 for me today. I've jacked the air conditioner today, have a fan directed onto my bed tonight and am betting on a 0-0 double shutout tie even though there's at least one of them in the game I've noticed. We'll see. All in! It's a blood sport!

Heard one after going to sleep the other night. Quickly took care of it with spray. That was the only one I've seen/heard so far this year.
Korean mosquitoes start late (this year even later) but they'll still be around in november.

Everything else gets in, but very few mozzies. The one that I have seen so far was quite dopey, must have stumbled in before getting knocked up and had not activated stealth mode.

I probably get them because I'm in a basement. They are huge with a thick shell. It took half a dozen hits with a mop to stun the last one enough to dispose of it. It didn't even look damaged, it just lay on its side looking like it would get up and jump in my face any second.
