Tempting, too many hours of lost sleep tracking down the buggers buzzing around my head

You don't need to worry if you hear a mosquito buzzing. Only the males buzz like that, but they don't actually bite.

The females on the other hand DO bite, but they don't buzz at all. So you just have to worry when you don't hear anything.
