Dodgeball Is a Useful Life Skill

It has begun. Mosquito season. It doesn't matter if you have screens on your windows, they get in your house anyway and feast on you and yours while you sleep. I was keeping a daily tally of mosquito kills, but I've lost track. It was something like:
Day 1: 6
Day 2: 5
Day 3: 1
Day 4: 3
and about 2-3 a day since then.

We've put screens over the AC vents because they were using the AC ducts as their means of transportation through the house. I think they were hiding in them during the day and emerging at night.

Anyway, the dodgeball reference. We have a high ceiling in our bedroom. Too high to reach, even with an 8 foot ladder. Luckily we have a cantaloupe-sized dodgeball and I happen to be a proficient dodgeballer. Unfortunately, our ceiling is becoming quite unsightly.

2-3 more months of mosquito season left.
