Mosquito Plague

For the past week, we have been quarantined to the indoors because of the plague of mosquitoes outside. Just getting into the car results in at least one bite each and trying to harvest from the garden is a puffy-swollen-itchy wish. We've had some short excursions to the mailbox during which I constantly hit Amelia's legs to get the mosquitoes off-she now hits her own legs when we go out. Yesterday I counted 16 bites of various healing stages on her legs, poor thing. We've been putting some Rhuli Gel on them to help with the itching, here is Amelia trying to apply it herself. Keeping the cap on helps prevent a mess. :o)
