I can't tell you when they're going to end, but I do know that the residents of Hadley are out in full force swinging nets to capture all the little buggers. They're planning on bringing them over to the Village of Duval and releasing them all over there!

That's funny, my doctor keeps telling me the same thing!

Anyway, in thinking it over I realized that perhaps I shouldn't have spilled the beans. Now all the TOTVers that read it are now going to get their villages together to do the same... and dump them in Hadley!

Getting back to the original topic and before Bill-n-Brillo fills my master bedroom with popcorn up to my knees, there is a good article that states that love bugs "emerge in the spring and fall (usually May and September), although this can vary by a few weeks earlier or later. The total "season" lasts 3-5 weeks." The web address is:

http://www.tripadvisor.com/Travel-g2...Love.Bugs.html

How long has it been so far since they started this time?

The love bugs must snooze at night. We left early early early this past Saturday a.m. for the drive back to OH and encountered none at all while on the road!

Um...well, do you think they "disingage" and smoke cigarettes before sleeping?
