Well…..
Where are they?
…..here we are…..squatting in the normal/steamy/swampy/water & scum…..
…..the same stuff we get every summer…..
…..per usual…..
…..(it’s the norm for this time of the year)…..
………………………………..Whoopty Doo………………!!!……………….
Normally you have to take a putty knife to scrape the mosquitoes off your arms and legs and neck…..
………………………………….but this year…..?……………………………..
Where are they….?…..
I just spent almost two hours outside with Montana (our blacksmith)…..
…..at sunrise…..
…..and I killed only uno/one/1/ein mosquito…..!?!…..
…..no one buzzed me…..I didn’t even see any on the horses or Montana…..?…..
I have friends with good/high/dry/pasture land…..
…..and they are swarmed with the boogers right now…..
But here in our snorkel-worthy swamp…..
…..we don’t got none…..(?)…..(I just love a well-placed double negative…don’t you?)…..
……………………BUT…..Why…..No Mosquitoes(?)……………………
I would guess that there might be different categories or sub-species of mosquitoes…..(?)…..
…..maybe even high-lands and low-lands mosquitoes…..(?)…..
…..(really…..I have NO idea…..whatsoever)…..
But I do know…..we got NO mosquitoes here this summer…..
Hmmmmmmmm…..(?)…..
We have low-swampy…..boggy-land…..(a bug’s paradise)…..
…..and no skeeters…..
I’m not complaining…..(I’m really not)…..
But after decades of blood-letting here in our swamp to a multifloofloous-brigade of broody mosquitoes…..
…..I don’t know what happened…..?…..
…..and it worries me…..
I do know that Mr. Gates had millions of sterilized (male?) mosquitoes released down in the Keys this last spring……
…..but…..(?)…..
…..what do I know…..(?)…..
…..I’m just using housewife-logic here and watching what goes on around me…..
I’ve lived through gypsy moths…..and Japanese beetles…..and love bugs…..and citrus greening…..

…..you know…..all those well-intended/avalanching mistakes & hiccups…..
What could possibly go wrong with releasing prophylactically-educated boy bugs…..?…..
…..we’ll just have to wait and see…..
