As part nature preserve, Sanibel is host to a slew of critters. Outside of household pets - excluding dogs - curmudgeons don't do well with critters.
One of Sanibel's critter plagues is the humble - and aptly named - no seeum. These flying, biting pests can even fit through screening. And let me tell you, their bite leaves a nasty welt.
You would think a mosquito got you, but as we all know, there is enough residual DDT from the early 20th century spraying floating around in the ground water to prevent THAT!
These damned no seeums must have evolved a resistance to the stuff - the wind dies down and they're all over you.
Paradise, my eye.
