[quote=Anonymous]I grew up in the south and had a lot of mosquito bites from the most common mosquito at the time (southern house mosquito). Those mosquitos were active in the dusk and evening and caused normal bites -itchy, but not anything out of the ordinary. Since they bit mostly at night, you were mostly safe during daylight hours. I moved to Asia about 15 years ago and got devoured by Asian tiger mosquitos. Asian tigers are active in the daytime and they gave me huge welts. In the 80’s, Asian tiger mosquitos entered the U.S. through shipping containers. It took a few decades, but now, Asian tiger mosquitos are more prevalent than the southern house mosquito in the south. They bite all day long, including at dawn. I moved to a climate with no mosquitos and it’s amazing. I can leave my windows and doors open and sit outside all evening with no bites. Mosquitos are the worst. [/quote]
