No See Ums (Midges)
The Midge, or No See Ums, or Noseeums, are a staple pest on warm nights in wet areas around the Eastern Shore. The reason they are called No See Ums, is because they are very small, but pack a sharp, pinpoint sting. Biting gnats!
If you are getting bitten and you don't see what is biting you, it is safe to say that these little irritants are the culprit. Particularly a few hours before dusk, they will come out to get you smacking yourself and jumping! Proper treatment of your property can greatly reduce the prevalence of these types of insect pests!
Welcome to the Eastern Shore!
