I bet many will claim vengeance during the night :p
That's smart, leaving the vacuum on to suck up the little buggers ;)I bet many will claim vengeance during the night :p
mosquito in the house is rare.. left the screen door open when cleaning the vaccum cleaner..Show Image(http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-NHg596PadMo/TdU2-EioWpI/AAAAAAAADjM/wCWUy4zS9HQ/s1600/tuzki69.gif)
Many's the night I was up late seeking terrible vengeance on those miserable little insects.Mosquitos have a really annoying habit of flying right by your ear. I wouldn't mind them biting me if only they didn't wake me up with that terrible sound.
Frequent were the little blood stains across the walls and ceilings.
My blood, I have to admit.
But you get the picture.

But you get the picture.
You hear that, and are suddenly jolted awake.
Your hand juts out and jabs at the light switch.
Blinding light floods the room, banishing any thought of sleep as you screw up your eyes and try to see a tiny black dot moving near your pillow.
Second pass, and nothing.
The seconds stretch into minutes, and still nothing.
Your eyes become used to the light, and you start to move your gaze upwards.
Suddenly you see a small speck on the wall, up near the ceiling, on the other side of the room.
While you are squinting your eyes and planning the best approach across the detritus that accumulates on the bedroom floor, you hear that bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz in your other ear.
Damn! The little bugger must have crept up behind you!
Swinging around, you glare at the wall, the floor, the ceiling, anywhere, your eyes darting frantically around the room.
Without pausing your frantic eye moments, your hand reaches for the can of fly spray that you know is there.
Still nothing.
A yawn struggles to escape, and a quick sideways flick of the eyes towards the clock radio makes you realise that you could still get a couple of hours sleep until it is time to start your day's activities.
Keep searching and squish, or spray?
It is too early in the morning to make decisions like that.

I need something to get rid of black flies....I had an infestation once when I didn't wash my dishes for a month (disgusting, I know..) and what I found works is a pair of flip flops and do a clapping motion with it.

Happy hunting ;)I need something to get rid of black flies....I had an infestation once when I didn't wash my dishes for a month (disgusting, I know..) and what I found works is a pair of flip flops and do a clapping motion with it.
This would be a win, win.....kill the flies and get fly guts all over the wife's flip flops!! thanks for the idea!!
My favourite is the single-handed "grab-em-out-the-air-and-squish-em-in-one-movement" technique. Got quite proficient with both hands, although I'm still faster with my right. If I'm feeling patient I let them land on me and then squish. I don't mind them biting (with one exception), just hate the noise.
The exception is that they seem to think my nostrils are the be all and end all of fine dining spots, so they try to fly up them every chance they get.... Inside my ears are a 2nd favourite of theirs. This is how my hatred for them began.
Good job on the two-in-one! You will soon be a master, grasshopper. But first try chopsticks.
No man...my parents made me train like that when I was a kid, but not with mosquitos, just with moths which they attracted with a candle. I only ever caught one.My favourite is the single-handed "grab-em-out-the-air-and-squish-em-in-one-movement" technique. Got quite proficient with both hands, although I'm still faster with my right.

Every asian on the planet has tried this... I really really doubt anyone was able to pull it off (purposefully).

Massdrop keeps having sales on that one salt gun, I've been really tempted but my room is like completely sterile of all insects ._.
It snowed about an inch here today, no mosquitoes for me.

impossible... for example when spiders are born. they're almost microscopic. You eat several pounds of bugs a year, and you don't even know it..

Baby huntsmen spiders are about 4mm from leg tip to leg tip.
This one time we had an egg sack hatch in the bathroom and there were about 100 baby spiders (yes, I counted them, after spraying them - didn't want 100 huntsmen in the house).

Back to me my blood
I think lost Blood 1.5L over while last 40years.
Yeah.
The biggest one I have seen was about 20cm from leg tip to leg tip.
Big bastards, some of them.
Personally I'd prefer the mosquitos.
what if it fell on you sleeping?

Just never panic when it lands on you because it senses your fear and will bite if threatened in any way.so i should wait politely until it goes off through my face?
do you also check your floor for dugites and your garden for taipans?
australia scares the **** out of me.

okay, a correction: iri not coming to 'straya. ever.
So i just shake it until their brains are outside their bodies, then scoop the leftovers off the carpet.
