When we left they were on our clothing and in our hair. It was pretty bizarre. |

Buy on the southside of 441/27. I personally would dread having to drive to and go over that terrible golf cart Bridge every time I want to get to any kind of entertainment or dinner. Just Sayin'. Then back over it to get home. Invest just a little more!

In 1959 when my parents moved from Baltimore to St. Petersburg, I was in the 4th grade and we were with a realtor looking at homes. It was at night since my dad worked during the day and I never forgot this home. The realtor said, there is a real nice screen porch just off the kitchen, and then he opened the back door and flipped on the outside light. In an instant there was a swarm of about 200 large flying palmetto bugs inside the porch. My dad said, we've seen enough, and we took off for the front door.

We have a new 2Br/Ba home in our neighborhood that The Villages just built for a great couple for just $160K. Amazing. It's surrounded by Manicured Manufactured Homes. The Love Bugs are crazy In Love this Year. Usually we have a few but this year has been rough. It's still worth it just to be lucky enought to call this home. |

Having a garage (or at LEAST a golf cart garage to the side of the carport!) would have made that particular home infinitely more attractive, for the very reason of the lovebug problem. But having to put your car right NEXT to that door where the infestation was (since that's also the driveway), and having an open golf cart sitting in the same spot...ugh. I can't imagine the difficulty in trying to even get into the car, let alone washing it every single day for two months (sometimes three) every year. What a waste of water.
Is there even any kind of method to shift their location? Like, make the spot they've chosen to be as unattractive to them as possible, so they'll choose the back wall of your house instead of the front door? Or lure them so that they actually like the place, just - in a different spot? |

Yeah I know what they are, and I know they aren't disease carriers or stingers or biters. They're basically oversized horny gnats. I'm not fond of gnats, either and harmless or not, I don't want an infestation to fly into my mouth just because I happen to pick that moment to sneeze.
