how many calories I burnt swatting Mosquitos while mowing the yard. Has rained or sprinkled everyday for a week, the yard is a swamp and we have swarms, literally millions, of the pests. Took an hour to mow.....has to account for something other than just looking silly.

    LOL. Not sure about the calories, but *OFF has a new product that you clip to your belt loop to keep the mosquitoes away. Looks similar to one of those plug in air fresheners. :smile:

    Our yard looks bad! Especially the back... Hubby tried to mow it the other day and had to weedeat most of the back because it was too wet for the lawnmower. The mosquitos are horrible, but I went and bought Cutter's yesterday. As soon as the yard dries out I am going to cut it and spray it! The mosquitos in our neighborhood are horrible! If you wanted to log more exercise time, you could have brought you mower down to my house! :)

    I hate skeeters. I walked the dogs last night, and today I'm scratching 3 bites. One on the back of my neck, one in the crook of my elbow, and another on my leg. They love me. They tell all their buddies to come get me.

    Kinda jealous that you've had rain, no gonna lie! But I don't envy the mosquito marathon though. .
