Synopsis
Mickey, Minnie, Horace, and Clarabelle are out for a camping trip. The gang are sitting around their campsite when one of the first forms of wildlife they meet is a tiny, pesky mosquito. When Horace swats the 'skeeter, the little bug flies back to the swamp and rallies his relatives for a full-bore attack on the gang. Everyone retreats to the tent, where they still get stung, but can fight back a bit, eventually trapping all the mosquitoes in a pair of bloomers and sending them on their way.

Camping Out
This film was also released in a 50 foot 8mm version titled "Keep 'Em Flying."
I found this film to be amusing as an adult. As a child I saw it innumerable times on 8mm film and laughed each time. It used one of Disney's staples I call, "the rear-end shot." Clarabelle shows her underwear and Horace gets nailed in his behind by an accumulated faux large mosquito.
