This might be one of the most random topics I have ever seen on a forum board in awhile. Those mosquitos are sneaky bastards though. They always bite me when I don't notice, or when I do notice it is too late.

In the summer time when I work at the beach horseflys are everywhere. Truly a pain the rear. I generally grab a fly swater and just clear every room that I hang out in when on my break. I go on this like killing frenzy. I'm at the point know that I hear the buzzing and I just think, time to swat!

Get a spray bottle of water and spray at it, the water will weigh them down and they plummet.
Of course supplementing spray bottle with can of hairspray and a match is a lot more fun.

Where I lived in Northern California, the mosquitos were the size of bears!!! Freaking scary to be outside during the afternoon...

Well at least it solves the bear problem.

Hes not here anymore..I guess hes asleep or my dog ate him, because he was buzzing around until I logged off (and avoiding slappage!)
Horseflies and deer flies are evil! but their eyes sure are pretty cool looking.... I want to get one of those electric fly swatter things, apperently they are lots of fun you hit people with when youve been drinking.
