We make sure to empty the baby pool ASAP and don't let any standing water in our yard. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-the-mosquitoes-like-where-you-live#post-1030323 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 21:14:16 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1030323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Vicious! I live near protected swamp and the mosquitos are always out. They hang out by our front door and sneak inside all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-the-mosquitoes-like-where-you-live#post-1030308 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 21:09:19 +0000 MrsScottish 1030308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>annoying!! My city fogs, but only when trap counts are over 120 in more then one area of the city. They fogged twice this summer, but only those sections. I have gone through 2 bottles of off. My dogs are even covered in bites! Funny though, we went camping, and the campground sprays and we never saw one!<br /> They are so annoying! My city is known for mosquitoes though.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-the-mosquitoes-like-where-you-live#post-1030266 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 20:54:17 +0000 doodlepoodle 1030266@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Kansas here and they're hell. We joke that they're the state bird. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-the-mosquitoes-like-where-you-live#post-1029440 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 14:19:03 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1029440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>HORRIBLE!!! I hate them - can't go anywhere outside for more than 5 min w/o getting bit. :-( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-the-mosquitoes-like-where-you-live#post-1029417 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 14:13:09 +0000 Freckles 1029417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I live pretty north, and the mosquitoes are AWFUL here. I had welt-like bite marks the first summer i was here. LO had a mosquito bite for days, and it's still bright red. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-the-mosquitoes-like-where-you-live#post-1029405 Mon, 19 Aug 2013 14:09:45 +0000 BananaPancakes 1029405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally random question, but I was thinking about how nice it's been this summer because the mosquitoes haven't been bad at all at our house and we've been able to enjoy the evenings outdoors regularly. I live in Florida, and they are usually terrible during the summer months, but our city sprays and it's really been effective this summer. My parents live about 20 minutes south, in a more rural area, and they say it's still terrible this year. </p> <p>Do you have to deal with lots of mosquitoes where you're at? I've only lived here, so I don't even know if they are noticeable further north or west. </p>
