What on earth is taking bites out of me while I'm asleep in bed? How do I put the bugs off? I had short sleeved pj's on so tonight I'm putting a long sleeved top on. - @Kath948381

That would be mosquitoes, go to the pharmacy and get a repellent.

There's a chemist in the village I got some cream for bites last year I'll go tomorrow morning when it's open and see what I can get.

I found a spay that I'd brought from the UK a whole back and it appears to have worked.

Whole ? While

Ah good good, they always manage to get me on bone. Gawd knows where they hide.

Get a piece of thin cotton cloth.

It's commonly sold at 1.2 meters wide which is perfect for a single.

Buy 2.5 times your height, the sew it into a big sleeping bag shape with the hole one of the short sides.

Pop insect repellent on the outside of the hole, jump in, and be bite free.

I made one for travelling around Asia after I get a serious biting one night but have never had a problem since.

@Kath948381 try mixing in a spray bottle, water with vanilla extract and if you like a pinch of cinnamon as a mosquito repellent.

My wife has a sure-fire folk remedy for not being bitten by mozzies.....just get married to someone that the blighters find more appetising! 😣

I useless fact, it's only female mosquitoes that bite.

There you go, @JimJ! Irrefutable proof you are attractive to females!

Kath, I hope you haven't had any more bites. We had a tiger mosquito invasion in our village two summers ago. It was awful, everyone had huge nasty bites. I found using a mosquito coils for a couple of hours before bedtime worked to stop the nighttime attacks.

Mosquito repellent plugins I find work well, also maybe spray Mosquito/fly killer in room, under the bed a few hours b4 sleep time.

Do you leave your windows open, then maybe get Mosquito nets fitted to your windows, I have and them work fine for me.
