But the Mosquitoes would still bite you although they died after the bite. 😅

Worth it.

I was trying to find a screenshot of Vincent Vega saying (paraphrasing): “It would’ve been worth him doing it to catch the guy” and stumbled upon a nifty piece of trivia. Apparently Tarantino has confirmed that Butch is the guy who keyed his car! Kinda obvious in retrospect.

You still try to kill them, but at least the ones you miss will end up dying anyways. If enough people do it, maybe mosquitos will evolve to avoid humans entirely lol
