Bill,
A mosquito is a small vascular clamp. It can be straight or curved and have teeth or not.

NDD, Thanks!
I'll locate some up here for the kit.

LL,
small slivers huh? I guess so. I watched my brother once pull a sliver out of a guys foot that had gone thru the bottom of his boot clear out the top with the foot in the middle.
Some bad slivers we had in the woods are the ones on top of big stumps that are the remains of the "hinge" when the tree was felled. These could be from inches to several feet tall and kind of spike shaped. The hazard to loggers was to jump from one stump to another, slip and fall on the "slivers".
