Pods,

Last night I was watering the gardens until dark, annoying the lightning bugs and getting drilled by mosquitoes.  This morning I am finding bites.

So I'm trying an experiment with some Capzaicin cream on one bite, while another Control Bite goes untreated.  The treated bite doesn't itch when left alone, and only a little bit when rubbed.  Then there's a slow glow afterwards.  The untreated bite is a typical annoying mosquito bite.
