Blimey :eek:

It's a bit of a concern that as this country gets hotter by the year, these bloody things and worse will be more common. The British are not ready for big, bitey insects yet :schwitz:

I always thought dragonflys eat misqitoes (i have no idea how to spell that) which is why i liked them..

I like dragonflies, and damsel flies (the littler ones). Very pretty creatures, apart from the 'face' which is just scary.

And yes, they eat Mosquitos, and/or their larvae I believe
