Bites

It doesn't matter how many times I wash my bedding, somehow every time insects get under my duvet when I sleep and bite me to hell.  I must have about 30 insect bites on my legs right now - and all of them are incredibly uncomfortable and itchy.  This has historically always been an issue with me - my blood must be intoxicating and addictive to them.  One bite, and they can't get enough.  I've got some insect repellent for when I go on certain hikes, but I don't particularly want to resort to using it every night (and it stinks).  It's times like this when I wish I had central air-conditioning (a rare commodity in this particular part of the US) and wouldn't need to leave my windows open and let the little buggers in.  First world problems right.
