Mozzies now

<< < (6/12) > >>

Dupnica:
You're right Rover it's not always the mosquitoes that bite your legs,there are some pesky little flies that like to have a chew at you as well
and they are about day and night.I don't know if any sort of repellent works on them.

Lesley:
I heard from others eat Marmite not sure!!!! but everyone has their own ideas, me I use a plug in a night and put the a/c on when asleep.......

Gavlah1973:
Jimbo..... they were definitely there. You've been one of the lucky ones. I normally am but this year I got eaten by them.....

Like I say worst parts of the village were the night we spent at Nafsica, buzzing and bombing us like mad and on the balcony back at the apartments. I also had a couple of em after me in the bedroom despite using the plug in.
The little man never got bitten at all...... weird!

There was one night whilst we were there when it was a bit cool and windy. Glenn at Aquarious said everyone moved inside..... unfortunately so did the Mozzies resulting in quite a few bites for everyone that evening!

I usually get around 7 or 8 over a fortnight, but funnily enough this year was the best I've ever had! :D Only three and I think a couple weren't mozzies but some other type of biter as they didn't really come up much. Used the new stuff people have mentioned from Amazon and did put it on every night but never in the daytime. We were staying at Anatoli and eating a lot at Nafsika and had no bites there. Seems to be just a lot of luck, or bad luck should I say - take no notice of Jim as it's true he never seems to get bitten and hardly ever puts any anti-mozzzie stuff on as he hates the smell!!! They just don't like him!   He does wear long trousers and socks most evenings and I'm sure that helps.However I have to say we didn't see many while we were there. So if they like you keep spraying - good luck!
