After 20 years in this business you start to connect the dots, or bites, as it were.
My wife and I walk the dog by a year around creek that looks pretty fast and clean. If there is absolutely no wind, small black “fruit flies” appear in the shadows and buzz around our heads. These are midges or gnats or very small black flies, I am not sure which. But I know one thing about them, they bite. You almost never notice the bite and the swelling and itching does not start until the next day. The same (bite) thing happens when we work in our shady back yard around dusk on a windless evening.
The key conditions to get bitten by these pests are clean flowing water near by, shade, and no wind.
The welts appear so long after the bite that people think they have gotten bitten in their bed that night. They never connect the dots…………
