    Does he mean that, as the base of the food chain, mosquitoes are the first eaten and thus less likely to cause environmental apocalypse? Or that the EA has already begun with the elimination of much of the base?

    Apparently they are no where around where I live. The mosquitos here were vicious this year!

    You should have spent some time in my back yard this summer, bud. My legs were bitten so bad it looked like I had chicken pox.

    They actually eat nectar. The females only need a blood meal to produce eggs.

    I never found the need for repellant this year on any hikes I took, even at the height of wildflower season through the wet meadows in the High Sierra.

    They were all at my place because we’ve had 3X our normal rainfall since July.

    Where I live in Michigan, a fish I caught in May is still flopping on the deck; kept alive by the humidity and the skeeters he catches!

    There are plenty of harbingers of environmental disaster around you, kid, from the seas rising to the bees dying. It’s beginning to look like Mom Nature figured out how to quit us: just leave it to us!

    As I believe I have said here before, I wouldn’t begrudge them the amount of blood they take if they just didn’t spit in the hole.

    This is one of the casualties of a rapidly changing, rule-bending world: You can’t just relax anymore and enjoy a blip that works in your favor. It might not be a blip, and it’s probably not going to stay in your favor. Everything has the potential to be Butterfly Effect writ large. You can see why there’s a lot of denial going around. I hope that’s not a trend.

    Caulfield should have spent a few weeks here. The Dane County Health Dept & the UW Entomology Dept are reporting record mosquito populations.

    To mosquitoes we are the base of their food chain.
