I've got all four mosquito magnets running now and each of them is just LOADED with these little monsters. I believe this is the worst year we have seen of them around here.

Hopefully their season will be over with soon. We really can't do much outside because we spend more time swatting at the flies then we do getting anything else done. I got two-thirds of the back of the house pressure washed yesterday before I had to abandon that task and run for cover from the flies.
Sun screen with Bugg off....no oily feel, no runniness, no real smell and works like crazy to keep the little feckers away!
