Be patient - they won't be back for 17 years.   Fortunately we don't havee them here where I live.

I don't have to deal with them all that much but right now the bugs that are driving me up the wall are fish flies.  They generally aren't bad but what they like to do is coat things.  Park your car outside for a while and you'll come back to one side being blanketed with them, and you either have to wipe them off to get rid of them or pray you can get in without disturbing them cause the ones here will all scatter and get caught in your hair or your clothes.  Neither scenario is that pleasant.

Bugs don't really bother me, but those pesky little black flies can drive you nuts, they are in your face, your mouth, your hair.

I've heard that we were suppose to get them in our area but, have not seen them yet! I guess they are getting them up to the North of the state. I live in Virginia just southeast of Fredericksburg and have no see a one yet, don't really want to either, saw them up around Washington DC about 7 years back and they were so thick that the sky looked black.

I can't stand bugs! I literally have a phobia or something because I want to cry and tear my skin off when I see a bug. Recently I discovered little holes in my clothes hanging in my closet and with extensive google searching I discovered there's carpet beetles that eat clothes. After that I scrubbed my entire house and I still dread sleeping in my bed. hahaha I'm so dramatic.  :dontknow:
