Those Pesky Little Creatures

Mosquitos, they are like those pesky terrorists.

They sneak across – they respect no borders.

One needs a net to keep them out.

They breed rapidly – most rapidly over what remains stagnant.

Their numbers shoot up at certain times of the year.

They mostly suck blood without actually changing anything – but sometimes, they can infect people and spread the diseases they carry.

You gotta kill them one at a time – sometimes creating collateral damage in the process.

The females are blood-thirsty.

The males – they thirst for the females!
