They sure have arrived early this year. They've been in Central Florida for a little over two weeks now. Gotta "Love" those big splats on the windshield....

Saw some about a month ago and have not seen any since.

They truly are a PITA.



I run a sprinkler on the mess for an hour or so to soften them up then wipe them off with a dryer sheet.

McKee's Road Kill Bug Scrubber. There's like $12-15 for a 2-pack on Amazon. They work great. They got bugs off that even the high pressure nozzle at the car wash couldn't get off.

Fuck 'em. I drive a 9 year old car with 180K miles. I have a $20 a month car wash package. What the car wash won't get off...well...fuck.

It was an outright orgy outside my front door. Like 50 of them (X2 =100 cuz their attached!).

Grabbed my leaf blower and sent them on their way... temporarily ??

Early? They usually start around the second week of april here and last about the first week of May. They were pretty light last September and pretty light now...  

Guess the conditions just arent right for them. I dont know! Some years they are heavier then others.. With no natural enemy's thats what I'm assuming...

Simple Green works great for removal. Better than Poor Boys Bug Splat.
