As OCsun stated, they've been down the last couple of years. They are attracted to white, I remember last year only really noticeable times was when I went to the neighborhood pool. They seem attracked to white, and the pool with the white fence and white pergola roofing around the deck, they are always hanging out. The only other time is when you get on I-75 or the Turnpike, they seem to accumulate on the car. So during April I try to stay closer to home. They stay in the larvae phase for 120 days, so that is why you'll see them again in September.
