    Default Hugo skeeters

    How many of you remember the skeeter invasion post Hurricane Hugo? I bet things are going to suck here shortly...

    Yeah. They were those fat striped leg bastards. Felt like a bee stung you when they popped you

    Fuck, they bad now with all the rain. Suckers turned my Thermacell off Thursday night and that was after one grabbed the bottle of Permethrin and chugged it.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    They were bad like that after the flood last year. Big bastards. They would just come and hit you like a thrush pecking the shit out of a crow.

    This. That 7 inches we got here a few weeks ago seemed like it hatched the eggs left after the flood.

    Those tiger skeeters after the flood got alot of my blood.

    They were able to stand flat footed and screw a eastern wild turkey. They can kill you or even worse.
