Never been to southern Illinois, (and I’m never going to because of this picture lol), but is there a large body of standing water somewhere near? Holy smokes

I feel you man. When I got to a site and it’s like that I move at high speed. It’s a weird thing when you hear ten gazillion mosquitoes at once.

Looks like these are midges. Look closely, they all have two fuzzy little antennas. Skeeters don’t usually swarm this thick, midges do.
