For real. Love bugs are harmless and kind of cute. The main problem is that if you drove anywhere when it was mating season, you had to get a car wash. As bugs go, they were amongst the least annoying. I don’t want to call them “the best” bugs because some butterflies and lightning bugs are pretty cool but love bugs don’t care about us and we don’t care about them. They don’t bite or try to get in your house and birds and other animals have a feast.
They might be the best behaved bugs. They’re just trying to get their freak on.
Did you see the pictures in the article? They're blanket everything so thoroughly that the dude was able able to scoop up piles with a shovel. Feels like that is a genuine nuisance, as I can imagine they'd be clogging vents and other things with how intense the swarming is in some areas.
…Florida has entered the chat.
Meanwhile, TIL there's a bug that can fly while conjoined for mating.
I believe Dragonflies can also do this.
