Love bugs come twice a year - in early May and in September. You will see them a lot at the pools and at the entrances to golf cart tunnels. They will get sqashed on your car grill and windshield and the acid in their body can eat the paint so wash it off right away.

They are a nuisance but do not harm anything. Just think if they ate plants or stung people! Now, that would be bad. They are around for about 3 weeks and then leave for about 6 months.
