Or is it that the victims pest warning system is currently winning the biological arms race, in which case how are mosquitoes able to successfully reproduce? Or is it that mosquitoes have evolved such that their spawning numbers offset the difficulty they have biting?

Biology is hard.

    In all fairness, since it’s more of a baseline experience, there are fewer mosquito swam clouds and more biological countermeasures like geckos and anoles that help snap ‘em up.

    The sheer density of what they can look like in the high north is almost unimaginable to me. I think you’ve actually got the edge there still, and for that you have my sympathy.
