In the tenth book of A Series of Unfortunate Events, The Slippery Slope, Snow Gnats are small flying insects which inhabit the Mortmain Mountains.

For example, snow gnats fled The Valley of Four Drafts when the V.F.D. headquarters there were burned down. One may also protect oneself by covering the body wit

A fencing mask will impede the gnats while still allowing the wearer to see. And make sure when your holding something over your head like a coat put your hands on the inside of the coat not the outside.
