Cockroaches and mosquitoes? ... honestly ...? Be warned - I've got a cockroach story too.

Well, if I can't say I'm exactly fond of either, though I don't hate them, but I can say that mosquitos tend to be pretty fond of me. That said, I do enjoy watching the spectacle of swallows and bats chasing after them in the late afternoon, early evening. Dragonflies eat mosquitos too, and I think those guys can be absolutely stunning.
