I seem to remember some horror flick from years ago about giant mosquitos that would suck you dry in one go. I forget the name of the movie though.

Salt marsh mosquitoes have been known to kill cattle due to the huge swarms

[mass55th]

Perhaps only one if its carrying yellow fever.

How Many Mosquito Bites Would It Take to Kill You

Only one if the mosquito is carrying Zika virus, West Nile virus, Chikungunya virus, Dengue virus or the plasmodium parasite.

The bigger problem is the diseases the carry. Malaria top of the list but many others as well. In those cases just one bite can kill you

they like O blood more than A blood people. Citronella, lemon grass, some other oils you can use to deter them from you or a room/area. I lived at a place one year that got swarmed with them and didn’t sleep for nights because they were all through the place biting me through multiple layers of covers which i was fully under. Then I learned about the oils and that a good breeze also helps so they can’t attack you. not sure how you would use that for walking the dog, but definitely helps to have fan blowing the air around. some people say garlic pills help, i never tried that.

My brother was stationed in Alaska once for a time and said there were reports of bush pilots having gone down who died from blood loss and the venom from the mosquitoes.

I have a ThermaCell I keep in my camping stuff, it really works to keep the mosquitos at bay.

yes they suck the blood out of your wallet for refills, but I just buy them offseason

[jy8z]

I seldom get bitten by mosquitos while everyone around me is reaching for the can of Off. And the ones that do bite me, I swear they end up dying right away.

It might be the alcohol in my blood content. ☺

Eat more garlic! Spray on deep woods OFF, tie dryer softener sheets in your belt loops.

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

Just one if the mosquito has some weird disease spread by it’s bite. Yellow Fever is just one of them.

[al baby]

All i know is more than a couple bites would make me wish i was dead

[HotHunt]

My dad was stationed in the military in Alaska back when I was a young tyke.

He said he and some of the guys he worked with, saw adult moose who were killed by mosquitoes by smothering them.

Big mosquitoes and thousands of them.

Tabasco won’t stop them from biting but, according to this commercial, it will take care of them afterwards.

The Mosquito is the Alaska State Bird - although no-see-ums and white socks can be more annoying, then there are the horseflies who will chase your boat just for a bite.
