An unusaul redback plague this year, one of which I haven't seen
before in living here for 27 years, don't let this put you off QLD, as
for the nasties etc. we live in a sub-tropical climate, what do you
really expect, the insect etc. like the weather the same as us human
beings. As for the mossie bites, try Vitamin B2, helped my mum get
over them as she reacted badly for years to them, now with the Vitamin
B2 she hardly gets a reaction at all.
