Washing Up
Okay, I went outside today lured by what I believe are wild baby pansies ~ beautiful little flowers. I then saw a bunch of bugs flying around. I initially thought they were flies because they were near where I put food out for the animals (meat that's questionable that would normally end up in the garbage) but I realized they were mosquitoes and ran as fast as I could. I get bit by anything and it swells to the size of a quarter.
So my question, why would there be huge swarms of mosquitoes? Is it the 4 days of rain? Will they go away once the yard dries a little? Don't they carry deadly diseases? Should I call my landlord and have her take care of these critters? Sorry, I'm just freaked out by this huge swarm in my backyard. Oh, last question, can they bite my outdoor cats and hurt them?
