I used to feel this way until I was bitten by a horsefly. I'd rather have 10 mosquito bites than this

But horseflies are easy to see, trap, and/or swat. Plus, that ratio might be right, 10:1, but I think my actual historical ratio is more like 400:1, and I’d definitely rather one horsefly bite than 400 mosquito bites
