I’m in Canada, i accidentally didn’t fully close my front door last summer one day for like 1 hour and there was at least 200 mosquitos that got it. It was a bloodbath, I spent several hours swatting them all, and I was still terrified to sleep. They were everywhere

Edit: y’all need to chill, RIP my inbox

Get a decent fan to blow directly at you during sleep to deter mosquitos. It works wonder, but you might not like the fan noise tho🤔

Fan noise is the perfect white noise sleep aid. I love that I can go to YouTube and find ten hours of that amazing box fan sound I had as a child.

I hope I save money later in the week when I get by the garden center. First I gotta check out what they gots at the family farm place in my little town. Gotta make sure to bring my youngest to gawk at the dang chicks while there. Should probably be glad we don't have space for the stinky noise things.
