RUSSSSS~~~

I figured I better come back onto this thread as I started getting in trouble in the Political forum again!

Anyway....yes the love bugs will probably be here....just ignore them....clean off your car and golf cart...then keep it in the garage....if you see any....just look up at the beautiful blue sky and bright sunshine!! After all no matter what day it is.....it is a beautiful day here in TV's!!

as for the buffalo....God Bless them too!

I am not sure I should ask this, but why are they called "love bugs"?

They live to mate. Period. No food. Just get together. The good thing is when you kill one, you're really killing two (most of the time, anyway).

Red's got it close! I was going to say that they copulate almost from birth, and don't de-copulate! ;D

Plecia nearctica can be found in Wikipedia under "Lovebug."

;D

Default Love Bugs

What is the latest on the love bugs this year. I heard they are not bad. Is it a mild season or are they yet to come.
