Bugs bad in florida now?
Making a couple runs this week from Fort Lauderdale to Tampa. How are the bugs on the alley and on the left coast? Anybody made trips recently… Looks like we're pretty close to the second annual bloom love bugs…

I work in Indiantown. I haven't seen anything yet in terms of love bugs. Its not quite where you're headed but it is more towards the center of the state. Plus we usually have trucks that go out west that come back covered in them and they've been clean so I think you're good for now.

Just getting a few down Houston way too. I didn't know they came twice a year. That sucks.

They are starting to come out now. It's not bad yet here at work in Indiantown but I am seeing some trucks come back with a fair amount on the front. If I recall correctly September isn't as bad as May though.

Theyve been pretty bad during the afternoon around me these past couple weeks especially.

We had a week or so of light bugs in mid-September. In my travels north, through Louisiana into Arkansas, last week we didn't hit many at all. We've had a very warm September and October with more rain than is normal.
