No worries, they will be gone in 2 weeks if everything stays dry. If not, the flood mosquitoes have already come out after the last big rain & all you would have is the regluar ole mosquitoes. If they bother you, keep moving and don't wear any colognes or body lotions. Maybe you could find one o...
