Interesting.  There was a doom & gloom in the Guardian this week about the dire effects of the devastation to the insect population, yet reading this post & having witnessed the huge numbers of wasps this year, you'd never think it.

Mossies are the worst I have ever seen this year. I can’t remember ever getting bitten so much in October.
Wasps are in abundance too. Our orange tree by midday is covered in them.

Agreed, it’s really bad.
I’m no expert but I’m sure s few that I killed in the house in the day time were those Asian Tiger Mosquitoes

I react quite badly to mosquito bites so I am very careful, wearing protection 24/7, but when we were over in September I got bitten twice even though I took all my usual percautions.
