Answer 7

Alas, we do have mosquitoes. We try to feed them with tourists but their appetite is so great they also dine on locals. Nasty little beasts, We have plenty of water places in France and they breed gleefully around those. You find them more in warm places so more in the south, but you can be badly surprised in the north as well.
