Re: If a mosquito landed on your arm.

Bee example is not the same. There is a no issue in your example because there is no intent on the bee's to introduce harm to get what they want. therefore, it is not an example preventing violence. There is no intent at all.

A mosquito on the other hand to get what he wants is causing harm and has the intent so to speak. Not that there is a conscious thought to cause harm, but none-the-less harm is caused to the host and that presents a completely different set of circumstances that must be dealt with.

There are many solutions to deal with this from chemicals, to netting, to reducing standing water, or swatting them. the fact remains though, that if you remain in that environment and do nothing you will get bitten.
