Oddbean new post about login | logout they don't seem to believe in insect screens here in #madeira but here in the north it's cool enough to keep things mostly closed so if you also are in a temperate kinda climate (southern japan?) an air purifier goes a long way towards mosquito avoidance, letting you keep the windows and doors shut while not suffocating on paint fumes and plastic off-gassing and dust
thank you, my ventilation system has air purifier filter luckily i just keep my balcony open often for cat to get some fresh air and watch the birds and my doors are v not typical..v long.. insect screens are to short.. need to find fix fr thanks
yeah, skeeters are not hard to be free of most of the time but if they are a real problem you need insect screens pisses me off here in damp northern madeira still i see nobody has this most elementary technology installed.. i come from the warm subtropics of southern queensland and skeeters are the hell
they are the worstttttt man next to flying ants
flying ants at least they are only around for a few weeks in summer and that's it, but skeeters all year except the coldest months, if you are lucky
you know so much it keeps on surprising me 🧠
flying ants are the worst tho... vivid memories from my school days in the hot days of summer in Toowoomba... ants everywhere, and when it was at the hottest, flying ants
this. i went to try and go tanning yesterday (tanning booth, as relaxation).. they were fking everywhere i freeaked ouut they kept on flying in my booth up against me employee helped out a bit killing them, but they were w too many, she gave refund eventually never going back there again, desgustinggh😂😂
oof it must be pretty warm there... your story is reminding me of an old friend from malaysia
no it's not even that warm here (Netherlands)
ohhhhh that swampy place yeah, as soon as it's comfortable to go outside without a jacket on in amsterdam i remember that many places next to the boggy areas near canals and parklands would get a bit bitey i dunno which parts you are in but for sure southern amsterdam around the big park there, amsterdamse bos? yeah... it's damn near rainforest how wet it is, nice, but skeeters
