Considering job in Plano--Mosquitoes?

[DevionisDream]

I don't live in Dallas area... But I've been searching multiple-places to see where to move

WTBS on to the mosquitos:
One summer my Husband and I were replacing all of the screens in the house, the contractors fell through, the AC broke, and we had no choice but to open our windows. Every night my husband who slept right next to me would get ate up. Even in the day time the mosquitos would land on only him. It turns out that his body temp and the fact that he sleeps with his mouth open helps the mosquitos to find him easier.
Heads up... some people just may attract more mosquitos than others.

Maybe it's dependent on where you live. Our house isnt near any creeks or standing water and we almost never see mosquitos. Such a nice change from the woods of NH. Ive lived in LA and can honestly say that around my house, there's no more than there. That being said, we dont go walking in the parks or near the creeks around dawn and dusk as you will likely see more. In the 18 months Ive been here I havent been bitten once by a mosquito.

In my opinion it's the fire ants you need to worry about. Those buggers sting!

To keribeth's response, do you live in a more urban area? I am thinking perhaps downtown Plano or even a commutable part of Dallas proper may have less (more cement, less trees/pools of water).
