my parents have something similiar with fish flies near the river in calgary, i hate those things they swarm and theyre so stupid they fly right in your eyes and mouth/nose.Vancouver nothing. i lived in pg where the Fraser river is my back yard with 20 acres field with to creeks that run on both sides of the field then spring comes and every thing floods you cant even see out the window screen because there is to many mosquitoes.
Were they the dreaded "vampire" mosquitos? Lol.had a similiar experience in transylvania (a hungarian part of romania) last year, they were soo bad and there were swarms of them, they followed us into the car and we continued to get bit until we squished them all against the windows.
LOL..Don !!! I guess that would explain the grid marks on the side of your headI'm an old Winnipeg boy, Vancouverites don't know mosquitos. LOL
Gotta be careful with the fly swatters there cause the lil bastards will grab it & smack the sh.. ooops, I mean, smack the tar outta ya!!!
Cheers!!!
