Mosquitoes are weird
They live off the blood of another creature/human. That's an invasion of the free will of someone else, or in other words, they have no permission for what they're doing.
And yet, that's how they live. And to top it all off, they leave behind an irritation on the skin which sometimes has to be treated.
One of the more perplexing creations in nature, i think.

Yes Ticks are very weird! Plus they can be very dangerous!
Anyway, many creatures live off other creatures one way or another. Crows eat the young of other birds...Jackdaws will eat eggs...cats eat mice and birds...dogs will kill what they can and eat it given the chance....hawks kill rabbits, mice, little birds...big fish eat little fish....humans eat animals (unless they have chosen not to.)

The human fetus lives off its host for 40 weeks...lol...
A leech or a tick for a few weeks max.
Yet we humans still seem to find the capacity to love those fetus forms.

I do wonder at times the evolutionary benefit of mosquitoes though?
Leeches were used in medicine once.
I wonder what the purpose of mosquitos are?

That's not that bad really, I mean many animals (Including humans) survive by killing and eating other animals.

They are food for countless other species.

Yet nature would say otherwise. Mosquitos are an essential part of every ecosystem they are found in. The same can't quite be said of humans, particularly nowadays.

I aim to please.
Now as for you guys bugged out about the bugs there are many natural means of dealing with them.
Herbs are an example. Anything potent in scent crushed and the oils / juices rubbed into your skin, or thrown in a small burner, will keep most mosquitoes away. Rosemary, basil, thyme, lemon balm, mint, catnip, lavender, and citronella are just some of the examples. Fresh mind you but most of these herbs are incredibly easy to grow and don't require huge spaces.
If you don't want the hassle find a herbal shop or a naturopathy shop that'll sell the oils straight out. |
