They're called tankies after the people who supported Soviet tanks crushing any kind of revolt in Hungary and Czechoslovakia. They think that all the negative stuff about Russia, et al. is just Western propaganda. Most leftists, including me, want nothing to do with them.

Even if they knew someone who died, they insisted it wasn't covid, even to the point of keeping it off death certificates.
We do have "poultry" as a catch-all for domestic birds. Not exactly the same as beef/cow, but definitely has a Norman connection.
Normally, I would recommend citronella, either the grass or the candles, but I believe it is toxic to dogs.
I believe lavender, catnip and basil are safe, but they're all mints and may try to take over your garden or yard. They all grow very well in pots though.
You can also try setting a trap. Put out some soapy water. The females are the ones biting you and they need water to lay eggs. They'll fall in the water and the soap prevents them from escaping. I haven't actually tried this with mosquitos, just other pests, but I have friends who swear by it.
I spin yarn! I have a normal spinning wheel and a small electric, but I prefer spindles. I've just recently worked up the guts to finally touch some of my more luxurious fiber. It's really nice because I can sit down and watch a movie or listen to podcasts and not have to pay attention to my hands and if I get tired of sitting, I can easily walk around with it. I haven't actually knitted (or crocheted) with any of the yarn I've made, but I swear I will, just as soon as I find the perfect pattern.
It's not an expensive hobby to get into either. You can buy a cheap Turkish spindle and some decent wool for under $30 USD or you can even make a drop spindle with a CD and a dowel.
If there's a makerspace in your area, they might have a woodworking workshop.
They act like Yellowstone and other areas are just an extension of Disney World: the animals are tame and nothing bad will happen to you, otherwise why would they just let people in to wander around?
