........that the Mossies that carrying Dengue Fever and Malaria are likely to be a real issue before long in the bottom half of the country, oh well they can keep the termites and scorpions that have made themselves at home darn sarf company.

More seriously if this newish threat continues to be a growing problem we are going to need to be PROACTIVE after TSHTF and there is no official support. EG around the home / retreat you will need to consider filling in puddles, or things that can hold stagnant water that mossies like to breed in. In some parts of the world when faced with an outbreak people are believed to put mineral oil onto the surface of the stagnant water which forms a bariers the mossies cannot poke their breathing tubes through.

Disease carrying mossies darn sarf and sabre toothed midgies in Scotland I'm pleased I live here cos I usually get eaten alive when the buggers are biting.

Anyway add some DEET to your kits.
