At the edge of the property I mow there's this thicket. In the summer it tends to be covered over by vines (wild grape, cinnamon vine(?)), looks terrible.
A few times a summer I venture into the thicket and try to kill the overgrowth by cutting vines. Every time I do it I'm amazed by the swarms of mosquitoes therein.
There's basically no mosquitoes out in the lawn, but step a few feet inside this area and they're buzzing all over. You got to keep moving, to the extent possible, because if you remain still for even four seconds they'll be on you. It's crazy.
