Have the Love Bugs attacked yet?

[Doc Marc]

Love -bugs are, for those who asked, little black flying creatures, probably the size of ants, but with wings, that mindlessly fly around, usually attatched to another, as is ritual, hurting noone. Totally harmless, just annoying in quantity.

I am in WDW for a week every Sept, and have seen the minor swarms. I do not see the fuss over them, though, as they do not make a sound, sting, bite, you just have to flick them away. HATE is little strong, don't you think?

LOL, I got a visual of this one. I drive a Disney Cruise Line bus. The dimensions on this bus are as follows: 45 feet long, 8 1/2 feet wide and almost 12 feet high. Do you have any idea how many lovebugs you can get on the front of one of these things???????? By the time we get back in the evening, the front of the bus is black. Thank goodness they're only here 2 months out of the year.

You should see the front of my 12'8" high, 8'6" wide fifth-wheel trailer after driving through swarms of these delightful little creatures at 65 mph !

Takes me a good two hours with a stiff brush and a pressure washer to remove them.

Ew.

For those of you interested, love bugs are basically fireflies without the fire. No lights, stingers, extra large jaws, smells, sounds, poisons, or any harmful things on them whatsoever. (Their blood is acidic which peels the paint off of cars, but that's it. )
