    True... sad, but true. I've been dealing the last couple years with
    a new type of "stealth" mosquito. I used to be able to hear the
    high-pitched whining buzz, but these are silent to me. They are also
    smaller, but leave a bite with a welt that can be as big as a dime,
    and a fierce itch! 

    I've recently become aware of a product called the Mosquito Magnet.
    This device is so effective, the US Coast Guard used six of them to
    reclaim a Bahamian base that had been abandoned after being declared
    uninhabitable due to mosquito infestation. Runs on a propane tank and
    puts out CO2 to attract the things from over about an acre, and sucks
    'em into a holding bag/death chamber. The device ain't cheap, but I
    think there are some more affordable knockoffs coming on the market. 

    In the mean time, DEET spray, and Christine's fan suggestion may
    help me retain what little sanity I have left! I suppose I could also
    consider screen doors... but would be kind of tough with the
    barn-door style doors I have. 

All the best,
Dave
