      Small flying parasitic insects. Only the females bight you (don't mean to be sexist but it's true). The males drink nectar. The humming keeps you awake at night and drives you mad. They always find their way in regard less of whether you use citronella candles, aerogard or have fly screens. They fucking hurt when they bight and I fucking hate them.
