In the interest of spreading MOSQUITO INFORMATION..... >,-)

Source of all
  1. Only Female Mosquitoes Bite
    There are about 3,500 species of the little vampires, and they can be found in virtually every part of the world. But not all mosquitoes look upon you as a delicious meal. While both male and female mosquitoes feed on nectar and plant sap as their nutrition source, only female mosquitoes need blood for egg production.  
    .
  2. Mosquitoes Prefer Darker Colors
    Black might be slimming, but if you're trying to avoid mosquitoes, best to opt for lighter-colored clothing as they can be attracted to darker colors.
    .
  3. Mosquitoes Do Prefer to Bite Some People Over Others
    If you keep getting bit while those around you don’t, it may be because the flying pests are attracted to the body chemistry of some people over others. Chemicals such as carbon dioxide, which is emitted when you breathe out, and lactic acid, an element found in sweat, attract mosquitoes.
    .
  4. A Full Moon Makes Mosquitoes More Active
    Werewolves, zombies… and mosquitoes? Yep, the full moon can be blamed for many strange occurrences both real and imagined. Scientists have never actually seen a real-life zombie, but they do know mosquitoes exist— and that a full moon can increase mosquito activity 500 percent!
    .
  5. Mosquitoes Need Only One Tablespoon of Water to Breed
    Mosquitoes prefer to lay their eggs in still or stagnant water or wet earth, and they only require a small bit of water to do so. In fact, for development, the immature stages of some types of mosquitoes only need a tablespoon of water to breed, an amount that can easily collect in old tires, children's wading pools, holes in trees, bird baths, saucers underneath plants—even a bottle cap.

Can you enjoy being outside, in summer...???????????

I'm so happy for all who can go out and enjoy Summer!  As,  I can't.

I walk out a door. And a signal goes out, to every flying/biting/stinging winged insect, in a 3 mile surrounding area. SHE-IS-OUT... -sigh-
.
My husband and others, can sit outside and enjoy. Telling me "There are no bugs around."  Hahhhhhhhhh!!! That may well be true, for them. But not for me! My son-in-law is the same way, so it's not just me.
.
No, I do not go out, sprayed in flowery perfume! -sigh- I guess that simply "How-I-Smell-To-Them", is aphrodisiac enough. 
.
Enjoy!   Enjoy!   Enjoy ! And Enjoy being outside in Summer,  some more, for me!!!!!

Husband home from hospital...!!!!!!

Husband is happily home from hospital.  Hooray!!!!
.
.
.
No I don't have a cute mask, like she has.  But I do have a regular surgical mask. 
.
Because I have a rottttttten cold.  
 .
Yes, I have been tested and am on antibiotics.  A few years ago, I thought I was going to die, with bad bronchitis.  I don't mess around with bronchitis.  
.
Also have raw, raw, raw throat, and sneezing...
.
So a mask is worn!!!  
.
He just got out of hospital.  Don't want him to come down with it. 
.
I'm not really in Blog Land again, yet.  But wanted to share the good news, that he is fine and home!!!

Blogging muse..... Flown away.... Again.....

link
My blogging muse seems to have flown away, again.............
.
link
I seem to only have pretty pictures, to put in my blog entries....
 .
I don't like to have bloggers simply "go missing" in blog land.  If they are busy, or away, or have simply lost their blogging muse...  I like them to tell me.  :-)
.
And so, I say this here.  So no one will worry about me.  So you will know that I'm just lacking my blog writing muse.  -sigh-   Often, when I say she is missing, she comes back again.  Perhaps this will happen, this time.  :-)
