Shinken Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 Yeah, I live near the woods; I got any bug you can think of! There's always these freaky, black little bugs with their butts up in the air all the time, and they seem to congregate upon the deck of my pool... :bawl: Plus, yesterday when mowing the lawn, I made an amazing discovery; a giant black beetle about an inch or two long, and twice as fat as my thumb! It was friggin huge, and it attacked me! I thought it was a scarab, but it wasn't. Weird. And mosquitoes; don't get me started! :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaperDonkey Posted July 30, 2003 Share Posted July 30, 2003 The mosquitoes are worse this year then before. I live in Minnesota, and we have legendary mosquitoes, Alaska and Us. This year is worse because they have been attacking in the heat of the day or at midnight, doesn't matter to them. *Need more bats* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To have a truly full life, you must go to a subtropical Hellhole with crickets that look like they could gnaw your head off, termites that can fly in loop-de-loops, and mosquitos that spawn like rabbits on Viagra. :toothy: And flammable wasps. Those are slightly amusing. ^_^ [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by LostProphet [/i] [B]Just Remember: it would take 1.12 million mosquitos biting you at the same time to drain your entire blood supply.

Neoclone-7 Posted July 31, 2003 Share Posted July 31, 2003 We get wasps over here like nothing else. You'll find their nests plastered over EVERYTHING. They are so badd, one time when my dad was out getting the mail and saw a wasps nest in the bushes nearby. He decides to burn the nest down with a BLOWTORCH!!! Not a smart idea. Needless to say, our bushes were raging infernos within seconds and my dad comes sprinting in like a bat out of he** swearing madly for water. Another time, me and a freind were knocking wasps nests off his house and I got a nest knocked onto my head. I came out of that incident for the worst. I looked like I'd swallowed a beachball. Fortunately, wasps don't suck blood, or I wouldn't be here today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nezzyjean Posted August 3, 2003 Share Posted August 3, 2003 [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by pbfrontmanvdp [/i] [B]I hear that there is even a more serious disease than malaria/yellow fever that mosquitos are able to carry.

Deedlit Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 [color=009966]Bugs love me. Apparently they love me too much. As soon as I go outside, [i]ZOOM![/i] They all go dashing to me. Joy. :grumble: A few weeks ago, I went walking in the woods with some friends of mine to visit an old abandoned ambulance. How it got there, I don't know. It was practically empty, so I guess some moron got tired of it and crashed it there. Anyway, it started raining harder, so we went back to the house and started playing gamecube. Then I felt something bite me on the arm. I look down. There is a chigger there. I peel the chigger off of my arm. Another bite. Another chigger. I peel that one off as well. Another bite. This time, I look all over my arms, AND THEY WERE SWARMING WITH THE PESKY THINGS!!! I jumped up and started flicking them off of me, then I realized that they were on my face, all over my shirt, and all over my pants. Geez, you would think that they were spontaneously springing forth from my clothes! I managed to get rid of at least 200 of them that day, but when I got home, I found at least 300 more. They itched for an entire week, and I still have the scabs. --; [edit]*squishes the knat that was flying near the computer screen so annoyingly*[/edit][/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
