Mosquitos... In Winter?

Mosquitos... In Winter?

Am I the only one finding that I'm practically being eaten alive by mosquitos this winter? Okay, that's an exaggeration, but there wouldn't be a week that goes by where I don't either see one buzzing around my house or get bitten. And it's not the same one over and ove again because I've killed at least half a dozen of them.

I don't think I've ever seen a mosquito in winter before around here, let alone the numbers I've seen this winter.

I'm not in tropical QLD, either. Where I live it gets quite frosty in the winter and this season's been no exception.

Anybody else having a similar experiance?

ooooh @chibam

I just checked my profile and saw I have read half a million posts ... my rich brother did better with making 6 million buckeroos ...

seen any roos, panthers, lions or horses out your way?

Much activity?

No wonder I get attached to persons, and it is the person not the computer screen which is my attachment. No good if the good ones are dropping off like flies.

Gotta love a few statistics but I prefer History like our mutual friend.

No roos. A very long time ago we spotted a wallaby just beyond our back fence. Possums are rife around here.

There's a large-ish property just down the road from us that used to own horses. I think it's changed ownership, so I'm not sure about the currant mob. But yeah, many years ago, we looked out our living room windows to discover a huge unattended horse standing in our front yard, munching on our bushes. An escapee from down the road, we always figured.
