This mosquito is good at hiding
A mosquito has been in our bedroom for about a week, biting regularly at
night; when we are fast asleep, in the early hours. We have some immovable cupboards etc, that are ideal for it to hide behind. Is there any way to entice it out, so we can deal with it? |

It's probably bed bugs. the female mosquito only bites the once. |

There may be something else biting you; fleas or bed bugs are likely culprits. IAn |

Big stinky farts are a mosquito's greatest enemy. Eat plenty of beans and
chicken for supper and fart in the wee hours of the morning and i guarantee no mosquito will ever come back. john hamilton wrote: A mosquito has been in our bedroom for about a week, biting regularly at night; when we are fast asleep, in the early hours.

Just pop a bit of cheese on a sprung trap and it'll come out during the night and get its little neck broken. Oh hang on - that's mousies not mozzies. -- Dave Baker |

Sounds more like fleas and/or bed bugs. we get just the one or possibly two bites between us, per night. The are very itchy and swell into a red blob. The remain itchy for two or three days. That seems just like a mosquito bite to me. Would fleas or bed bugs not tend to bite with a lot more smaller bites? |

Some just need water added and then you set them down and vacate the premises for the required time (usually stated on the package). This will also take care of many other pests also. Buffalo |

IME flea bites are quite small and itch and last for a few days, mosquito bites are a larger red lump and itch and last for a couple of days. Thankfully I have no experience of bed bugs (despite travelling to some strange places in this world). Get one of those electronic mosquito killers you put the tablets in (the sort you take abroad) and see if that stops the problem. -- Regards Bob Hobden W.of London. UK |
