[QUOTE="mattsmom27, post: 51055, member: 50"] Ewww! That would freak me out!!! Ever heard of shadfly's??? Well they only exist in a few places, they come out of the bottom of lakes in cycles once a summer for a period of several weeks. Only from SUPER clean lakes, and wouldn't ya know we have one befitting the nasty buggers here. They cant hurt you, they have no mouth (seems kinda cruel, not that I sympathize with them mind you ... YUCK!) and they die in about 24 hours. But they just keep COMING. They cover every surface, walls, windows, streets. They swarm towards light so at night every street light is covered in them and they fly into your face, land on you, cover cars etc. They are truly disgusting. Even worse, the entire city has to hose down walls and sidewalks and then sweep up dead ones nearly daily as they pile up. Streets get greasy with them. And the very worst, the entire city smells like dead fish from the rotten smelly gross things! Completely different problem, equally icky it sounds like! [/QUOTE]
