has anyone else been "chosen" by silent mosquitos? they are very tiny, you can't see them sitting on ceilings or walls, and they fly by quietly so you can't hear them landing on you. I am afraid to sleep anymore, being eaten alive. Ithink I have them all and suddenly one will fly in front of the computer screen, I have screens on my windows, but I think they come in the house with me. they are driving me nuts and draining my blood.

I have never heard of this, they aren't gnats? Could they be like fruit flies, in that they some from some sort of plant or something like that. Would a bug zapper work on them?

Sadies, those don't seem like regular mosquitos. See if you can catch one and take it to your county agricultural extension office. Um, good luck, or may time kill them all, or have killed them by now!

Sadie’s if they are inside you can try setting out bowls of soapy water in each room. They mosquitoes are draw to it and it will either kill them or keep them from flying. Plus it kills thier offspring. You can use any dish soap.

thank you. I had dishwater int he sink, but my eyesight is not perfect and they just looked like blobs. I need to get a magnifying glass. I think they are gone now. colder weather does that.
