Ives squished it. Was it a mozzie?

Looks quite big. Possibly a crane fly ( AKA daddy long legs) ?

Possibly a baby one. It was no bigger than my thumb nail (with v. Short nails!)

Oh no! This is the third one I've come across in as many days! Any recommendations on how to deter them?

They tend to just come in if you leave lights on and windows open after dark I find.
