    Have Mosquitoes Gotten Bigger....
    ....over the last couple of decades? When I lived in Houston, we used to have little small ones in the late 70's. I am here in Tennessee, three decades later, and some of them are big enough to eat me for lunch. Is it the area I moved to, or have they just transformed?

                                  Perhaps they have been taking steroids ?

                                  You could always move to Vegas, no skeeters there !

                                    I don't think they're getting bigger. I grew up in rural Massachusetts in the '80s and the skeeters there were huge.

                                    Now I live in Vegas where no mosquitos live

                                            Just bigger for you going from TX to tenn. You should try going to Louisiana where the state bird is the mosquito.
