Florida Mosquito Mania From Boake Carter’s Florida Column
In a Florida diary style riff Boake Carter mocks Florida mosquitoes as relentless pests. He portrays their stalking style, the humorous dangers of squirting, and the patience learned from dealing with them, ending with a quip about moving north for May skeeters. The piece blends humor with observational bites about Florida’s swarms and a nod to Horace Greeley.
