Buzzzzz!!!!

Around this time last year the mosquito attact was terrible. This time they're back and it's even worse. So after a few weeks of having the fan on all night, we resorted to something more effective, though somewhat unpleasing to the eye: mosquito net. Living in a hill station, mosquitos were never a problem the 25+ years I've been living here; so houses are not set up for it. So now our bedrooms look like makeshift tents, with sticks being errected on bed corners to support the nets. But it's effective. No need to waste electricity on fans (and rack up the bills).

So now I'm wondering whether I should errect nets to surround me on my workstation. I still use the fan, but around midnight it gets too chilly. I'm sure we'll resolve this somehow. My dad's already thinking of some kind of personal net, something akin to the beekeeper's net, for lounging around in front of the tv...
