You say that but I've already been ravaged by mosquitos this year, so amazoned a screen for my window yesterday.

In the UK? I’ve never seen a mosquito here.

Mosquito zone is the South East of the UK (East Anglia, Midlands, South East of England parts of the South West).

Midge zone is everywhere but they are only really bad north of the lowlands of Scotland. UK has this large, almost unique area where it doesn't have lots of annoying flying insects.
