I had the self timer on and was attempting at taking a not too horrible pic of myself. I am incredible over tired and not having the best luck. I felt something bite me and put my hands to my face. Sure enough it was a mosquito. Caught and killed him though.

Summer is the best time to go camping, have family barbecues and get-togethers, have outdoor activities and games, do some garden work. It is also the best time to get swarmed by mosquitoes. Mosquitoes love summer. They love warm places because they could breed faster and live longer in them. Don’t be surprised if you get swarmed by mosquitoes while you're out minding your own business. You are their business. Using topical repellents is okay. But once it wears off, you are again exposed to some more vicious piercing and stinging. It is not enough to just ward off those little blood-suckers. You should see to it that they are eliminated. It's time to get a mosquito trap.
With trembling excitement and anticipation we settled down in the seats and looked out of the small viewing slit to the clearing in the trees. I was still scrabbling to get my camera out when the first bear appeared. All through the night bears kept coming and going, feeding and foraging, playing and fighting, interacting with each other, climbing trees and generally putting on a great performance for the lucky few in the hide.
We’d travelled a long way to see the European Brown Bears, and they certainly didn’t disappoint. From a former border guard station, Markku and Oili run Matinselkonen Wilds Centre, a large 6,000-hectare nature reserve right on the Finnish-Russian border. To get to this pristine wilderness we took a flight via Helsinki to Kajaani, followed by a 200km journey along almost traffic-free undulating roads cutting straight through the Finnish taiga. The last part of the journey to the main lodge was on a gravel road, and from there you were taken on a dirt track for a further 20km or so before you left the car at the end of the road and continued the last 2km on foot. The path took us through pine and birch forest and over mosquito infested swamps to the small hide in a clearing.
The bears are attracting to the area surrounding the hides (there are six hides in total, accommodating between one and nine people) by a careful programme of summer baiting. The programme has been running since 2002 and now attracts a huge number of bears from across the Russian border. Since the first season, there has only been one single night that the bears didn’t show – I am really curious as to where the bears went that night. With continuous daylight through the night during the bear season, Martinselkonen is now considered the best place in Europe to see and photograph Brown Bears.
I didn't really think this would work when I took these photos. I was walking past a big old Redgum treetrunk that was laying on its side and there was a pool of water in a hollowed out section. I had a look around and saw these mosquito larva wriggling about in the water (we call them wrigglers here in Australia because of how they move).I thought i'd take a couple of photos just for something different and this is the result. The lens was obviously out of the water, so I was photographing through the water surface with a flash as well, that's why I didn't think it would work.

Mosquito Magnet® is able to attract mosquitoes and other biting insects by using revolutionary technology such as carbon dioxide and Lurex3™. When they reached near the trap, these insects are vacuumed into a net, which will leave them dehydrate and die within 24 hours.
Ideal for small yard, patios and garden areas.

Fighting the mosquitoes that transfer malaria to humans has been difficult. Mosquitoes have developed resistance to the chemical insecticides that are used to control them. Now scientists have found a way to kill mosquitoes without harming people or the environment.
