Whata wus.


Perhaps. We find that the biggest issue this time of year is the
mosquitos. The area where we live sprays and that keeps them under
control. Elsewhere however when you try to open things up at night
to ventilate, the critters just about carry you away. A/C solves all
that.


In Maine last week the mosquitos were atrocious. Lots of rain hasn't
helped the problem. When we opened the outer door, there'd be a thick
swarm around the screen door. Opening that, very quickly, would always
let about a dozen into the trailer.

Pain in the butt. I probably went through a pint of Deet.
