You are right there Robert. They are really pests though my swallows do a good job of getting them before they get me. Proud to tie with you in this contest. Is it okay with you if I use your limerick as my inspiration in the new contest? Thanks Joyce

Many congratulations Robert on your win in Carolyn & John's fine contest with this Limerick gem. Quite a few I have read so far are Mosquito writes, or is it bites, haha. Have a great weekend >> James
