Tiny flies that bite people to drink their blood.
Midges are a.k.a mosquitoes so basically the diseases that mosquitoes carry midges carry them too.
A common genus of midges is "Chironomus."
Only one type of midges could bite a dog and those are Ceratopogonidae.
They help diseases spread. So, from a disease's point of view, midges are very important.
In parts of Scotland, especially in the height of summer, the midges eat humans!
