What do you do when a pesky mosquito is keeping you up at night?

Get up and smush it?

@Les I hear it, but I don’t see it when I turn on the lights. :((

Try to find it. If I can’t I cover up completely and put a t-shirt over my head. Then I plan to get the Caladryl out in a couple of days, since I know it will get me once I fall asleep.

I pull the sheet all the way over my head and curse my fate.

Don’t wear blue, the are attracked to blue

@Tink1113 You can’t be serious… Even in the dark??

Yeah, I’ve heard. And I guess they have good vision

Take off and nuke it from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure =)

I get up and stay up until I find it. I have an intense hatred of mosquitos and refuse to be tortured all night.. why is it they wait until I’m juuust about asleep to dive bomb me? It’s maddening.

I will spend quite some time looking for it, but if I can’t find it, I’ll put ear plugs in and hope I’m not bitten too bad. :\

@AlenaD Me tooooooooo!!!! I hate mosquitos. I refuse to sleep until I find it and kill it. I swell badly when I get bit.

I go and sleep in another room

Keep a can of superhold hairspray handy. They’re too quick to catch. But if u can spray it – slows them down – and u can squash them. It’s sad but it works.

Light a candle. He might be attracted to it, which would be helpful with the catching and squishing.

buy an indoor misquito zapper
they have them for about $30
