I'm surprised by the very few bites I've had since I came back here in november and I've travelled around the country a lot in that time.Locally you just might be unlucky.Usually surges occur after the wet season.

To the original question: Yes, I have noticed a large increase in the number of those small vampires. Not sure why, but they are out and about.

I live in Jomtien. Since 3 weeks the number of mosquitoes increased dramatically. I also don't understand. The last rain was long time ago and they need water to breed.

Yeah, here too, near Big C Extra. Last 2-3 weeks I've had bites almost every night in my 5th floor apartment. Not too common in my experience and I'm living in the same building for 1.5 years, off and on.

I'm surprised the Ba****ds wanted to stay with you!!!!

Joking aside, yes, I've noticed a few days ago that there's has been an influx of mosquitos lately.

The past 6 months I have been attacked by the things. Never used to happen, they are worse now than I can ever remember them being over many years.

Was bitten on a knuckle a few weeks ago and it still itches!

Yes; most definitely: I can confirm that there IS a substantial & noticeable increase of mosquitoes, since about a week or 2. We live just behind the Railway-Road, in behind Greenway Golf (across the Sukhumvit from Underwater World) and have been here about 5 years.

This cannot have anything to do with "the ending of the wet-season", because it hasn't rained for many weeks already.

It appears to have started right after the recent 'cold-snap' ended - very strange.

I have a sneaky suspicion "the man in Dubai" is behind this 'aerial-attack' . . . . . . 555 ! ! !

Generally, if there is a mozzie within 100 kilometers, it manages to find me. I think they consider me as a buffet dinner and fully expect that one day they will show up with needles and an IV line to draw off the blood by the pint.

Haven't been inundated by them as others have but we are pretty high up in a condo.

Best thing that I have found and tested in many countries are the plug-in type with the small bottle of repellant which screws into the bottom of the device. Available everywhere here.

Yes, yesterday, wed, was awful even with doors and windows closed and air on.

The worst are these little ones that are very fast and very hard to catch.

Have you noticed how they take off? Unreal stealth-like.

Someone on TV suggested they did not exist a few years ago and may be due to human genetic manipulation of the creatures.

Whew. Kinda glad and sad to read these reports. We've gotten invaded by the buggers over the past 4 weeks or so. I've only been here 4 years, but it's the worst I've seen.

We spray every week in our house. Under the beds, behind the curtains, under the couches, etc. Close the house off, leave for several hours, come back and air the place out. It's amazing how many dead mozzies we find all over the place.

It ain't just Pattaya. I'm having a surge at my apartment near Asoke in BKK. None for months, then a big uptick in the last 2-3 weeks.

Seasonal increase in mossie activity. Stay calm. They will be gone as fast as they came.

That isn't fast enough.

Plenty in my part of Chiang Mai. they don't need rain - the drains are full and they're all uncovered.

Yes here too... I had to buy one of this liquid.... They came under my bed....
