Guest Andrea Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 OMG...they are EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Their little carcasses are all over my truck, all over the front porch, the back porch, they are finding their way into the house. Their flying "mating-fest" is driving me crazy!!!!! It's a good thing they don't bite.......or we would be in BIG TROUBLE. Anyone else enjoying this "consumation-migration"?????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Finn Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Re: LOVE BUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It's unreal how many seem to come from nowhere. I hated that time of year when I lived in Cocoa Beach. Caught one once but just needed a quick shot from the doc Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tallone Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Re: LOVE BUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are horrible and will take the paint off of the front of a car if they stay. One secret my uncle showed me is to spray pam (the no-stick cooking spray) on the front of your car, it protects the paint and they wash off with a hose. Just don't put too much because it will blow all over your windshield, a lite coat is all you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newarcher Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Re: LOVE BUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You guys have no idea.... I was hunting a trophy lease and the last day it was just warm....to say the least. I was hunting a metal stand and they were so thick in and out of the stand that I could hardly see out. I would pick up the binos and would have 30 on the lenses. It was misery. Hate those things ever since...another reason to love winter and fall.

jbeck Posted September 21, 2005 Report Share Posted September 21, 2005 Re: LOVE BUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If your talking about the little lady bugs that come out this time of year, Ace hardware caries a spray that will kill them. We sprayed it on our windows and doors, also on the back 0f the house and cut down the invasion into the house by 80 percent. Bug Max 365 is the name of the product. Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Re: LOVE BUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There are plenty around here this year too. We didn't have any until Katrina went through. Probably all blown up here from south LA. BTW...WD40 works good for removing those suckers off the front of your car, truck, etc. real good too.
