As far as residents of a city in Russia are concerned, the more mosquito bites they get, the better.


This weekend, at the Russian mosquito festival held in the city of Berezniki, the nine-year old Irina Ilyukina won in the category of the “most delicious girl” with 43 mosquito bites she got while she was picking berries with her mother in the forest. She received a ceramic cup as an award.

The unusually hot and dry weather in the city beneath the Urals has drastically lowered the number of mosquitoes. The organizers of the fourth annual festival were forced to cancel the traditional mosquito hunt in which the competitors are required to catch as many and bring them to the counting in jars.
