RE: [RC] [RC] Question - Bugs - Wendy HarrisWow........where are you that its been raining so much? I loved it when Ridecamper's were posting where they were from. Our weather has cleared up quite a bit from all the rain we had earlier this year. The mosquitoes were horrible at first but they aren't to bad now.

I went down in my shorts to check the round bale while feeding the horses (7 MORE straight days of rain (up to 40-2-3 dry ones)-and got 4 mysquito bites. I forgot , must wear jeans outside to do any work or OFF. Just have to decide whether to die from Heat prostration or chemical absorbsion. Who wants to spray Off for a 15 minute feeding? Everything is a puddle, the worms are drowning..... I just want to ride!!! My riding ring is mush and growing water lillies..... I bought fertilizer yesterday, with this much rain ,I may as well . And it might make the rain stop, usually if I buy grass seed or fertilizer it stops raining......

Been there...they bite through jeans here in Texas, too...the worst part about getting skeeter bites on one's, um, *lower* cheeks is that it's not considered polite to scratch them in public! But down here, the worst are the chiggars...little mites that are in grass and too small to be seen, but they bite and generate the most gawdawful itching for about a week (body's allergic response to their saliva). They like places where clothing is tight...ankles, behind knees, panty lines, bra lines, arm pits, you know, all those places one can't scratch in public. ARGGH! Dawn in East Texas (starting to itch just thinking about them...) _________________________________________________________________ Get tips for maintaining your PC, notebook accessories and reviews in Technology 101. http://special.msn.com/tech/technology101.armx =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
