Mosquitoes in winter

It's already November and the mosquitoes are surprisingly still around.
There was one in my room which woke me up in the middle of the night. I couldn't go back to sleep thus I'm writing this to pass time.

I pity them because every single meal is a live or die situation for them. You'd either get slapped and killed or be unnoticed and get away.
I left my door open for a bit and now they seem to be gone.
Live a good life, mosquito!

"thus" feels kind of weird here, maybe it's just to me but it sounds more natural to say "so" or "so instead". "the" is optional, again just makes it sound more natural to me

You'd either get slapped and killed or be unnoticed and get away.


You'dThey either get slapped and killed or be unnoticed and get away. They either get slapped and killed or be unnoticed and get away.

You can use the second person I guess, but it's gives off the impression of a more literary style, as if you were talking directly to the mosquito. I think it's a cool style though!

You'dThey either get slappwatted and killed or be unnoticed and getfly away. They either get swatted and killed or be unnoticed and fly away.

You swat a fly or bug. slapping sounds odd here and "get away" feels like something is attacking them, if they were unnoticed they wouldn't be attacked so simply just saying "fly away" is fine

In this sentence, you're referring to the one mosquito from earlier. "They seem" could also be taken as singular but only when you don't know the gender of a person, you just use "it" as a pronoun for animals. Using "they" as a pronoun for a mosquito feels a little like you're personifying it.

Live a good life, mosquito!
