Gnats

The biker was bombarded by clouds of gnats along every mile of the bike trail.

Chloe, when she had milked her ewes, and sometimes Daphnis' goats as well, had great difficulty in making the milk curdle, for the gnats were very troublesome and if she flapped them away they stung her.

The river has dried up now, and the little water that remains is plagued by swarms of gnats.

The gnats swarmed us.

The wind drove off the gnats.
