Ferociously vs. Nastily vs. badly

Hi

Do these adverbs work? Any other better options please?

  1. It was impossible to sit in the garden. The mosquitoes bit us ferociously.
  2. It was impossible to sit in the garden. The mosquitoes bit us nastily.
  3. It was impossible to sit in the garden. The mosquitoes bit us badly.
  4. It was impossible to sit in the garden. The mosquitoes bit us horribly.

Thanks,

Tom

PS: Can I drop "the" before mosquitoes?
