Mosquito Bite Count!

[input]

The mosquite are quite the blood suckers this year. I'm guessing its due the rain thats coming in lately.

I've been bit around 15 times. Post how many times you got the bite.

[vrus]

four, all on one arm, one night outside in the park. Bugs been good to me this year.

[skyblue12]

none :cheesygri

[Aznkid2000]

been bitten about 5 times.... went to a park on Wednesday... dam its still itching

[aimfox]

twice but the itch is gone now :cheesygri

[dragon_drift]

I had so much that I lost count. about 100 times in the last 3-4 months T_T until someone recommended me bug spray

[strangeepiphany]

Zero...

Is it weird that I don't think I've ever been bitten by a mosquito in my life? :confused:

Perhaps you are like me, you get bit, but don't notice because you don't get a reaction to the bite. I only know that I've been bitten because i will notice the misquito on my arm or leg, but don't feel it. I won't get itchy and i don't swell up. You would never know i was bitten unless you saw the action by the misquito

However, horse flies have taken a few chucks out of me in my life time. Black flies are pesky little buggers that will leave little red swollen marks on me, usually the back of my neck.

Never been stung by a bee, but I have gotten stung by a sweat bee.

15, i think its my blood type that's attracting them.

[molala]

none..until i went to the cottage few weeks ago then i got 15 in 4 days! :( but there was no rain up there though..

i did used a repellent...but i guess the mosquitos were too desperate!

[Musiq Soulchild]

Just got 2 right now when i went outside for less than 5 mins! In total I've prolly got 10ish.

[EbonyRose]

Even with bug spray, too many to count. Group of ten people wearing the same bug spray and I'm the ONLY one to get bitten. My blood must be gourmet or something.

It does wonders....

The Yukon once had a closed ballot referendum to see what the territory's national bird should be. Citizens were asked to simply write their vote on a sheet of paper and the votes would be tallied with the majority winning.

The Mosquito came in first place with over 65% of the votes...but because it wasn't actually a bird, the runner up won instead...the Raven

:)

[Goonish]

Zero... Two years and counting now... I must taste horrible...

[Qu4rk]

17 last month during camping.

One mosquito got into our tent on our last night and had a feast.

[gmark2000]

We were up North in Parry Sound a week ago and my daughter got 46 bites including a couple nasty deer fly bites.

[Badman]

hmm now that I think about it so far I only had 1 or 2 max for the year but it's odd as the years before I used to get 1 practically everyday.

[hyperion]

10-15 despite using that nasty repellent a few times.

[mrlooneytoon]

Four! All spotted together right on the outer head of my tricep and they are big!

The bastards are going for the muscle! :lol:

[input]

Up to Twenty-Five now. Up til this year, I haven't been bit as much.

[w4rrior]

wow, i haven't had a bite since i was about 6 and im 21 now.

[Talamasca]

Despite using repellent, I was viciously attacked at Algonquin Park last month. One of them even drew so much blood that it was trickling down my arm! I must have had around 8 bites or so that weekend on my hands, legs, and neck.

Since then, I've been bite free but tonight at my friend's house, I got two bites but I did not scratch them and the inflammation has since gone down and there is no itchy feeling.

That After Bite stuff really helps a lot though. Highly recommended.

Went to hiking today w/ shorts,
None.

However, there was a Fly that's be lingering around my head for more than half an hour.
It was so damn annoying.

Up here in the Yukon OFF is called ON.

The best mosquito repellent up here is Muskol in the small oil bottles. It stinks but works for hours all day. I still have three bottles in different backpacks, including 5 bottles in my "bugout" pack

[rabbit]

Try one of those sonic mosquito repellers that you can get from dealextreme.com. Some say they work, and others say they don't. Only costs a few bucks to find out.

[nite4evr]

Too much, considering I went camping twice this year and do lots of overnight fishing(weekly).

[flexwong]

my record was 12 in one night of basketball at my friend's house. the bugs bit me through my tshirt and i had them all over my back. i react quite badly to them, my bites all swell up like mad.

[AzN_RiverdaleCI]

zer0, I live in the city and I am a basement dweller and rarely go out except for school and work which is during the day. w007.

[urameatball]

about 20 in the span of 1minute.

walked into the woods to pee at 1am. worst pee ever!

[alv077]

4 on the same hand. It swelled up to twice as big as the other one.

The 2 on one side of the neck, 3 on the other. One on the side of one arm.

[nano]

i have 5 on my forehead.....

[hyperion]

My count right now is up to 15ish. I have about 5-6 around my left ankle, it's torture.

[RatherBePerfin']

After the crazy amount of rain we had lately, I've probably been bitten upwards of 100 times in the last week while golfing. West nile, here I come.

[input]

It stopped for me about a week ago. Now the healing process...

[Dano76]

Went to a cottage in the Minden area a couple of weekends ago. After a weekend of practically bathing in Muskol, and avoiding the bites entirely, I got nailed 29 times in about 20 minutes when I let my defenses down just before we came back (happed to be around dusk when we were packing up the car.) Horrid! Running total this summer is about 40 now. Been a particularly bad year. I usually only get a few a summer.

[skyblue12]

just got 2 from wonderland yesterday.. 2 more than i wanted )=

[sallo]

Went camping this pass weekend - I've counted 17!
All still itching.. !
Going to the cottage on the long weekend.. possibly more to come. :|

[nhui06]

Went to the driving range with my buddies on Saturday night and received my first 8 friggin bites of the Summer!! Driving me insane right now. Most are on my leg, but there is one on my left hand and is really pissing me off. Want to rip them all off haha

[Deadlock91]

too many lol

[hyperion]

Picked up 5-7 more playing soccer at night.

[nhui06]

Do you ever find that maybe a bit of clawing away at those bites a little bit of liquid comes out (not blood). Is that the salivia of the mosquito coming out after your body has fought it? I don't but really want these bites to go away

[UrbanPoet]

about 6 or 7...
This includes a trip to the cottage. So i think i did pretty well.

[hyperion]

I found the best temporary cure for the itch is mint tooth paste. Rub it in with some water over the bites, and you have itch relief for 4-5 hours.

Interesting. Will give it a try for my next mosquito bite.

I have four right now but they are almost gone and no longer itchy. I hate mosquito bites so much.

[Inzi]

i have 5 on my forehead.....

Oooh.. that stinks.

I haven't gotten any because I don't go outside.

[akirika]

i got a mosquito bite as big as an egg

[Sparkx]

If i am with a crowd of 1000, and there is ONE mosquito around, you can be sure i will be it's target. I hate them little suckers!
I highly recomend the new Off, Smooth and Dry. Smells better, it's dry and it works.
