Thats fascinating. What a way to go though eh? Bloatedness, leading to panic leading to relief, leading to dehydration then panic. Oh god, imagine realising midstream that you werent going to be able to stop and that you were going to die by uncontrollable urination. Rough. Kinda makes you hope for their sake that mosquitoes arent cognisant. ALTHOUGH if they are - it means they know what they are doing when they bite in which case…screw them! DIE EVIL GNATS DIE!

You know: we have a saying in Dutch, which goes something like:

“said the Mosquito: ‘all little bits matter’, and he peed into the sea….”

...Well, the scientists also created lovebugs to help take care of the mosquito population, and those turned out to be a plague!  Idiots.
