genuinely upset these pricks didnt have to deal with mosquitos before, they deserve this for not being bitten by mosquitos for 1000 years

Iceland has horseflies and stinging gnats that form dense swarms and get stuck in your nose hair and tear ducts because they want that salt off you.

I wish they'd do to mosquitos what they did to the screw worm fly and also start doing that again to said fly

they do do this to mosquitos, but in malarial areas. it's not economical to kill them off in places they're not making people deathly ill anymore
