This summer and last I started feeling the bite of mosquitoes, like, not the itch, but the moment they “bite”. Like a thin shot or a thin plant spike but more than fiberglass. Is there an evolutionary or environmental change to mosquitoes happening, or am I becoming immune to their numbing agent? What’s happening?

    Have you heard of heat rash (miliara rubra)?

    It’s not mosquitos, but your description of fiberglass and needles reminds me of this. It feels like each of my pores on my back has a needle in it when it happens.
