Just back from 2 weeks in Cote d'azur and it was my first time on holidays that I had a serious problem with mosquito bites.
On our first night alone I counted over 40 different bites from arms to legs to shoulders.....the rest of my family didn't get 1 bite between them.
Ok, I asked for it as I didn't have any mosquito spray or bands on, but are they particularly choosey over one type of blood over another? Anyone know?
For the rest of the 2 weeks I managed to not get bitten until my last night and then it seemed like the mother of all mossies got me right on the leg. It swelled up like a balloon and seemed to flare up every single other bite that I got 13 days earlier that had died down since. Back 2 days now and they have started to ease off, but just wondering about other peoples experiences when abroad with mosquitos....
