    No, people do not notice. Makes me want to scream.

    Last 2 years, the little ponds at my camp dried up. Killed the fish that eat the mosquitoes and killed the dragonfly larvae who would eat mosquitos as adults. This is in FLORIDA, in a SWAMP. The mosquitoes are so bad we can’t go out there, even hosed down in bug repellent.

    No one but me would have a clue as to why the place is so infested. They would just say it sucks, but what do you expect in a swamp. NO, I never had mosquitoes before!

      It’s like with snow over here. When i was a child, i would sometimes go to school on skis, we hardly ever had snow days. Last year it snowed maybe twice and the little bit of snow lasted a day or two. The year before it was a week or so.

      interesting… I also saw no sign of the hurricane coming, instead other states were flooded.
