Garfield by Jim Davis for September 22, 2018

thank goodness the mosquito(s) didn’t sting Jon “down there” (get some calamine lotion, Jon)

I guess the mosquitoes preferred to bite through his shirt more rather than bite his exposed skin.

Hey Garfield! Are you sure that it’s not your fleas giving Jon the itch?

Scratch that off the list!

Joke’s on you, I have a job so I’m indoors a lot of the time, so I only got bit like three times so far.

The worst part is the scratching is just the beginning.

Scratching will only make it worse, Jon.

With mosquitoes, the itch is worse than the bite!

One mosquito doing THAT much damage?

I still have several mosquito bites on me.

I can totally relate to this. On my vacation, mosquitoes mistaked me for an all-you-can-eat buffet.

Up here, a couple will land on you and ask, “Shall we take him home or have him here?”

What I wan’t to know was what he was doing with a British WW2 aircraft in the first place?

One of the (many) nice things about living here, is at 8,500’ most bugs can’t breathe. A mosquito is pretty rare…

The mosquitoes go to Florida for the winter and stay.

And in the Summer all the mosquitoes in the world go to Northern Alberta – or at least pass through.

Hmm… that should be sometime in November I’d guess.

PLEASE let it be the last one!

By this time of the skeeter season, bites only last about 15 minutes as opposed to early spring when they last for hours. I must build up an immunity to them.

Had one with me in the bathroom this morning – In a vulnerable situation. She won! I never did get revenge. But the day’s not over yet.

Even worse (and possibly deadlier) are the tick bites.

Or the West Nile.

I thought he just got itchy when exposed to bright sunlight like I do

this would have been a great Garfield Minus Garfield

Lucky for us the mosquito didn’t bite him as he stepped out of the shower…this is a family strip….

They bite, they bite and bite and scratch …bite, bite,bite, scratch, scratch, scratch, it’s the Itchy and Scratchy shoooowwwww !!!

I went to Italy this summer and I got 40 mosquito bites. Yes, 40!!!!!!!

There are times I am very glad I live in Surrey!
