We live in FL and stay in the a/c when it is hot and humid, or get in the pool or go to the beach, like you in the winter when it is -20, our mosquitos are not as big as yours but the spiders are. We have an exterminator so I do not get bugs in the house. I only lived in MN from mid April to Sept. We stayed that one year that it snowed 3 feet on Holloween so started leaving earlier. I really miss the 3 seasons.
