Luanne Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 It is just me or are there more bugs this summer than usual? We keep finding them in our beds, on our clothes in the closet, etc. We also keep getting little bites in our sleep. The mosquitos have gone wild as well. I'm glad there are no grasshoppers this year, but wish there weren't so many other bugs around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luanne Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 I'm glad that we are the only ones dealing with bugs this year. Whew! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dirty ethel rackham Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Well, we have way more mosquitoes this year, due to the unusually wet spring and early summer we have had. Our only salvation has been breezy weather. Mosquitoes can't fly in the breeze. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luanne Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 It has been unusually breezy here as well. I've love it. It makes it feel not so hot then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardenmom5 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 mild winter. more mosquitos - I have more bites. I've noticed some that I have never noticed before, so their populations are certainly higher if they've always been around. the pollens have also been much worse this year too. for about a week, I felt like my head would explode everytime I went outside. I doubled my antihistamines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoobie Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Bugs in your bed? You mean bedbugs? Yikes! Mosquitoes are worse this year, but that's all I've noticed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowing Brook Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I have noticed more ticks this year. It seems I can't go anywhere without coming home and finding two or three crawling on me. Thankfully non of them have bit me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luanne Posted July 4, 2013 Author Share Posted July 4, 2013 Bugs in your bed? You mean bedbugs? Yikes! Mosquitoes are worse this year, but that's all I've noticed. I don't think these are bedbugs. We had them once in the past and these aren't anything like those. Those left big welt like marks on my daughter's arms and legs and these are tiny little bumps and don't itch like the other ones did.
