No poll.
Goatheads ruin tires and tubes. Mosquitoes just plain suck. Bed bugs from the movie theater are almost as bad as catching the flu from flying. |

Goatheads. I'm blessed by a solid immunity from mosquitos, though.

Goatheads, no contest. There's no such thing as Deep Woods Goathead Off.

We see goat-head flats all the time. It's amazing that so many people don't know what they are. "Thorns? How do we avoid them?"
Don't ride your bike outside. |

I didn't even know what a goathead was, and we have mosquitos the size of morning doves up here. So mosquitos easily

In the Houston area the obvious answer is Mosquitoes.
Had to look up what a goathead is. |

Mosquitoes for sure. Have not cared about goatheads since I was a kid and rode bicycles.

For flying, greenheads and horse flies. I swear horse flies wait for you to pop up out of the water just so they can sneak attack and land on your head to bite you knowing your arms are under water and you can't swat them.

Goatheads, no contest. There's no such thing as Deep Woods Goathead Off. My SO was sponsored by Challenge. I have a bunch but fucking flats suck. I threw 4 tires in the rubbish bin. No way to patch them. They were fucked up. Nor Cal trails end of summer. I train on clinchers. |

Never had any encounters with goatheads that I can remember.
I rarely see mosquitoes where I live now but grew up in an area infested with them. It would make going outside at night nearly unbearable. Chiggers are in a whole different category and are likely spawn of the devil. |

no matter how well I clean the garage after dove season, my bare feet always find the one goat head that managed to slip through my defenses.
That shit will wake your ass up in bare feet |

I had to google goatheads, I've never seen them in Missouri. But we have a planned RV trip out west in the fall so I'll know what those evil things are when I step on one!

We don’t have Goatheads here in NH, but they’ve been used in warfare to deny terrain to barefoot soldiers. My father said the Hungarians have used it against their enemies. It’s called Királydinnye.
I bought some seeds last year but couldn’t get them to germinate. I am going to try again this year. |

Years of spraying and I have few goatheads, mosquitoes I can't control.

View Quote I would race on clinchers early season. The tubulars would not be ridden until it rained a bit. I lost many races due to pinch flats and goat heads. You have been there and done that. |
