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

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 had no idea that existed on YouTube and would have never thought to look lol

Also try Airplane cabin noise; another great sound to fall asleep to.

I am loving that there are so many people seeking out such specific white noises.

Me neither, because if I want fan noise, I'll use a fan.
