Shop NYC Top

What in the heck is flying around?! I only went out twice today during the day. First was at noon to get lunch with my roommate then came home to see a huge bump on my thigh (was wearing gym shorts). Went out at 5pm after work to gym. Just looked down and my ankle is completely swollen!

I never even felt an actual bite, I just looked down to see 2 huge bumps on my left leg. I’ve lived here for 3 years and have never gotten bitten this bad or had such an extreme reaction.

Does anyone know which bugs they are and how to not get bit? I didn’t think I’d have to use bug spray until nighttime tbh.
