Buzz Off Mozzies!

Not sure if it's due to the change in weather, there have been lotsa mosquitoes in our house recently. Daddy and mummy have done all the necessary checks at home to make sure that there's no breeding ground in the house. We don't have any fish tank nor pots in the house and all pails in the toilets are always facing down to prevent any stagnant of water. Despite daddy and mummy purchasing all sorts of mosquitoe repellent, anti-mosquitoe spray, patch and equipment trying to chase away the mozzies, still it attacked our house. So, they know it must be from the roof slab beside our house. There's this huge roof slab connecting our block to the neighbouring block and on several occasions, mummy witnessed mosquitoes flying in.

About 3 weeks ago, mummy slept with me in my room. There must be so many mosquitoes around that mummy woke up with swollen eyes, cheeks and ear the next morning. Not only that, mummy's arms, legs and neck weren't spare too. She was bugged by the irritating mosquitoes in the middle of the night. She wanted to pull up the blanket to cover herself so the mosquitoes won't bite her, but she was thinking if the mosquitoes got no one to feed on, they'll attack me. So, mummy had no choice but to kick away the blanket. But still, she found 2 mosquitoe bites on my arm the next morning. Mummy was furious. She did feedback to the town council before but nothing was done. This time round, mummy is not going to sit on it coz there' me. She wrote in to NEA to feedback and complain about the issue. NEA was much more efficient, they emailed and called mummy to follow up on the issue. Mummy was desparate and went over to the neighbouring block to check on the condition after the town council feedback that the roof is not the breeding ground. True enough, the young couple who also has a toddler at home also wrote in to TC recently to complain about the mosquitoe breeding problem at the roof top. This made mummy more certain and determine to make sure the TC do something to the problem. Sad to say, TC did not reply any of mummy's email, they only dare to communicate verbally despite mummy's request for a written reply. Anyway, NEA called after a few days reporting that they've made rounds to the estate and found several mosquitoe breeding grounds, but said the locations are confidential. Phew, there's really great improvement after that. At least mummy and daddy no longer need to go round the house "staring in blank" trying to look out for mosquitoes.


Check out the mozzie kisses on my face. Sob sob.....


See the mosquitoe bite on my right arm? That's just one of it. Hopefully that's the last.
