Nah, leave it to rec.gardens to come up with a good answer (see some of
them). It is surely hibernating mosquitos coming in on the firewood along
with the ladybugs, snakeskins, mouse droppings and other things I have not
yet identified. Ever since I built a woodshed a couple of years ago I have
been providing habitat to many little creatures. Clearly that shed is way
better for them than a freestanding woodpile.
I just didn't want to believe that they were breeding in the shower trap.
Yuk. We don't have any other slimy water in the house.

there are relatively lots of them around, and I can't imagine how we can
have them now. They never have blood in them, so I don't think we are

bitten, but there they are.
Do mosquitoes ever breed indoors?..........
Try asking this question in sci.bio.entomology.misc and/or
alt.consumers.pest-control. You might get a better response.
