Mosquitoes are my arch nemesis.  For whatever reason, no matter how much bug repellent  I put on, every summer I am COVERED with bites.

I've tried everything -- from natural, homeopathic methods to lethal DEET -- short of wearing a full body suit all season.  I guess I have sweet blood.

Enter: a nightmare.

Experts say a swarm of GIANT MOSQUITOES is set to invade central Florida (actually, right where my dad is enjoying his first month of retirement, RIGHT NOW.). Tropical storm flooding has lead to a mass hatching of them this summer.  They're allegedly 20 times larger than regular mosquitoes, and their sting is apparently painful.

Here's a nice visual of this MONSTER compared to the original!!!!
