The TM  Story . . .

It all began with MAX, the MAXimum Mosquito. He hung around a certain Vermont household for a while but then began to look very lonely. But then he remembered that winter was coming and with it, his cousin, GLITTER, the Snow Mosquito!

MAX was no longer lonely and he and GLITTER enjoyed sharing stories about where they'd been. Soon their Patriotic friend, FREEDOM joined them. The three spread joy around the neighborhood, bringing smiles to people who least expected to see giant mosquitoes!

With the winter holidays approaching, the Holiday Twins, HOLLY and BERRY came to visit. They found a friendly reception and decided to summon the Jeweltone sisters: AMETHYST, SAPPHIRE, AMBER and RUBY.

MANDY, the Mandarin Mosquito, heard of the gathering, and joined them for the fun!

Together they had a marvelous Thanksgiving buzzing about in the warmth of the little chalet on the lake. Because they don’t bite, the humans living there didn’t mind sharing space with these interesting creatures.

The swarm decided to send for more of their members, who are en route as this is being printed.

Another Jeweltone sister, EMERALD, arrived just in time to greet the two New Year babies (one boy, one girl), SKYE and CORAL !

   And now,  have gone HAWAIIAN

That's right, the Hawaiian Ali'i (royalty) is here, complete with little "flower leis" around their necks!

Handmade by a former resident of Hawai'i, these Skeeters are created out of Aloha (love) and respect for
the a'ina (land) and the people of Hawai'i.

The Ali'i Skeeters are named ALAKA'I, KIMO, MEKA, NOELANI, and PUA, and their colors come from
the beautiful patterns found in Hawaiian quilting and flowing muumuus.

The HanoHano Collection joins the Ali'i, with more Hawaiian Kine Skeeters, this time
 in colors representing eight different islands of the Hawaiian chain.

HAWAI'I, MAUI, O'AHU, KAUA'I, MOLOKA'I, LANA'I, NI'IHAU and KAHO'OLAWE
also come with coordinating leis made of colorful beads.

And, as if that weren't enough,
we are proud to announce the arrival of the latest addition to our

TM  family . . .

The BRIGHT BROTHERS!

NILBUR, NORVILLE and NEWBERRY are just about the brightest bugs we've ever seen!
