Here you only have to worry about the West Nile Virus. *They announced 52 more cases yesterday, which means the disease tripled. *I worry every time my daughter gets a bite. *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/nervous.gif *http://www.snowmobileworld-s2.com/forums/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif

They're back in full force here in Manitoba. And I thought I'd be riding my sled before I saw another blood sucker.

Haven't had many skeeter's in a while, it's been quite dry around here. But,.....the wasps are getting and have been terrible all summer. The stores can hardly kep the wasp spray on the shelves. Just another good point about winter........NO BUGS!

Except for the flys that thaw out when I go up to my cabin and turn on the heat.

Yeah,but, that's kinda cool because they can't fly as fast. it's kind of funny to watch them "in slow motion".

Yep, i can not wait for the first good freeze, at least this will thin them out . *i can not believe that good old -20 degrees does not kill these buggers, *it would be great if it di because that would take care of the west nial, they had to put two horses down in mn, not more then 20 miles away from where i live.
