Description

Bust out the DEET. 

We were curious, so we scratched that itch, and what did we find? Well, we found just about every fact we need to know which mosquitoes to swat, and which ones to spare. As it turns out, the most important factor is figuring out who's hungry for what, when! Just listen to the episode, you'll get it. 

This time of year, though, them 'squiters are hungry for YOU, so apply repellent if you're going to be out there. It could save your life!
