Can't believe the amount of #midges bothering us today … and right outside of #Edinburgh too. In all of my years in #Scotland I've never been bothered this much in the central belt 😅

Technical solution could help #Shetland #walkers ward off biting beastie
Digital creator and #ShetlandTimes contributor Mark Burgess is behind the new application, which could provide welcome relief for walkers and other #outdoor #explorers.
Similar #data has been used before to help fight against the #midge in mainland #Scotland.
But the new app has been specifically designed to take account of Shetland’s own conditions

Not all Scotland's midges are this big. As Summer approaches, here's what you need to know about the smaller ones: https://www.undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/usfeatures/midges/index.html

Can someone recommend anti-midges clothing for Scotland? Ideally there is a shop in Edinburgh or nearby that sells them?
Also repellents, which ones are effective for midges?
(Search engines are showing me clothes for little people, and that just about summarises the state of internet search today.)

Looking over my channel and reminiscing... this was quite the shoot.....

Nothing I watch this Halloween can compare with these lines about midges I just read in Jane Powers's "An Irish Nature Year"

That's a thing here in #Scotland too, though here it's supposed to repel #midges – a kind of miniaturised stealth bomber mosquito.
I suspect in both bases it's bollocks.

Oh ye, wha in your oors o ease,
Are fashed wi golochs, mauks, an flees,
Fell stingin wasps an bumble bees,
Tak tent o this:
There’s ae sma pest that’s waur nor these
To mar your bliss…—W.R. Darling, “The Pest”

#FridayFlyday: after seeing boxwood leaf miners emerging for the first time last weekend, the day before yesterday I saw lots of females ovipositing in the fresh new boxwood leaves!!

Best discovery at this weekend's yard sale day: I saw a bunch of tiny orange midges swarming around certain shrubs in people's yards. Looking closer, I saw they were molting from galls on the undersides of the leaves—often in bundles of three or four, leaving empty exuviae behind. Many were mating, presumably about to start the cycle all over again.
Just got around to looking it up. They are boxwood leaf miners, a kind of gall midge (family Cecidomyiidae). More information: https://edis.ifas.ufl.edu/publication/IN1291
