Oh, those are nasty and leave quite a mark. Latvians call them dunduri. Because they hum (dun) and prick (dur) (nevermind, I'm fascinated by language again). 😀

Cool way to combine these two actions to the name :P they are called "Bremse" in German.. which is basically a throttle or break. I don't know why this name. But yeah. Language ^^

Haha, so funny, bremze in Latvian means brake (the one in cars). We have so many German loan words! Zapte (a jam) from saft and more.
Haha yeah European languages have much in common :D
