Similar beasties in British Columbia. Locally known as 'no-seeums'. Not as prolific where l live as shown in the photo in this post, but annoying enough when paired with the 3 or 4 types of mosquito we have here in the Skeena Valley. They can go through window screens on hot nights with ease.

Imagine waking in the middle of night in bed and you are swarmed in this. Might aswell burn the house

I was once bitten all over by the little bastards when I was launching a boat into Loch Lomond. Had the lightweight boat on my shoulders (there were others too) and needed both hands so I couldn’t swat them off. The next day, I was so itchy I had to go and see a dermatologist who prescribed Cortizone, which eventually worked.
