RE: Occupational health & safety in the workplace - avoiding bloodsucking creatures

in #funny6 years ago

We have them here - in swarms. Mercifully not during the day, but at night. Being dive-bombed by a mozzie at 2am - NO. Even with the Tabard and the plug-in thingy.... The Husband is bitten less than I. Not fair!

Sort:  

It seems the little beasts have a thing for us girls - we must have more attractive blood. What a pain for you! I wouldn't survive the night without the electric liquid thingy. And nets? 🤣🤣 They just get inside them.

Hahaha! Definitely not nets - if you have to get up in the night, as I do, then the !@#%## creatures just fly in behind your back! Besides making me feel claustrophobic, our bedroom is in the loft space, so finding a way of suspending them is a challenge. We survive. Sigh..... At least, as you say, NO MALARIA. And that may be, with climate change, a "yet" scenario.... Sigh... again

Good point on malaria not yet....

Hopefully not in my lifetime...

Actually, one useful tip I forgot to mention: a fan. Even on low, not necessarily directed at you or oscillating, does keep them at bay...

You're right - it does. That's what we use in the living room...along with a citronella candle 😉😏
