I guess they’ll be up here in no time. Glad I don’t have any longer distance driving coming up.

Messy little buggers.
If I was living down there in that neck of the woods, I'd be using a new kind of Car Coating...….Crisco!
They ain't sticking now! LOL

Ive seen them here in Pensacola last Sunday went we had the bike out. Stopped at a traffic light and we got swarmed. As soon as we got home out came the waterless wash to get them off. I thought it was going to worse but not that bad. Something hit the edge of the windshield and splattered on my hand. Dam thing had a license plate on the back it was so big

I remember Mark (custmsprty) telling us that they have a spring and a fall swarm.

If left on for a long time they will actually eat your paint right down thru the primer

We’ve had for about two weeks in SE BAMA. Funny to watch the Hummingbirds chasing them away from the feeders.

We’ve got a bunch of them here in S. GA. Not a Florida bunch thank goodness. You need pictures of the lovebugs “lovin’”. Lol.

ugh they look weird, and I know they are a pain to deal with on your car. So Cali might cost an arm and a leg to live, but we don't have to deal with these bugs, snow or road salt. it's uber easy to keep your car looking good out here. I would go absolutely mad if I lived somewhere where I needed special products to deal with bug splatter or worry about keeping rust away.
