So I finally found something in Alaska that I despise.  You have heard a lot about the famous Alaska Mosquito, and we have a few of them here but they are really not that bad.  What is bad are the GNATS!  Tiny flying animals that back in Montana and Idaho do not bite you.  Here in Alaska they bite and bite hard.  The bite turns red, you bleed, it hurts, it itches and it lasts for days.  Ugggg time to get out the "bug shirts"!
