    I hate you.

    This is a real issue, like when you can't reach the pedals in your car.

    Back in 2007 I had a huge bees nest in my chimney, and they were escaping and getting in my house, it was bad. I had about 8 bees in my living room and more in my chimney trying to escape though the duck tape we put down to prevent them to get in. It just slowed them down. Problem was, the Dolphins/Giants game was on and the TV was in my living room. long story short that was the scariest Dolphin game I ever watched.

    If this fails, burn the house down.

    Play some Justin Bieber stuff, not sure if it would repel the love bugs, but it can clear me out of an area quickly.

    Are you saying you are a Belieber?

    I can kinda understand that, but the New Kids on the Block comeback album..creepy.

    You may want to change your Pandora password before that spreads around FinD.

    No, it drives me out of anywhere in general, a Belieber song came on my car radio and I jumped out of the car going 55 down the interstate..it repels any sentient being

    Like lucky talking to women...

    Your chimney is/was fire proof right? And, your solution was duct tape? Are you a jainist?

    back to the OP, have you tried just getting a few bug zappers strategically placed around your home?

    Geez, take a two liter soda bottle, or smaller, cut it in half invert the top half to create a funnel down into the bottom half

    Then add water+ sugar and leave them out, love bugs will climb down the funnel and be trapped.

    Had to google 'love bug'...I had no idea these things even existed. Is it a Florida thing ? Warm weather climate sort of insect?

    They suck.

    They were an introduced species to try and deal with the mosquitoes. Problem is they didn't eat the mosquitoes and nothing eats them.

    During the season, every car in FL is peppered with them.

    Funny.

    Even if that where true, it doesn't matter where you go in FL...there's love bugs everywhere right now.

    You'll notice in that picture a severe lack of swamp.

    It would take you weeks to pick them out of your AquaNet sponsored hair.

    To be fair, i don't think any introduced species has ever worked out anywhere. Or if so, its rare.

    ****EDIT

    I just did some research, they are not an introduced species. Every lifelong Floridian is told they are either introduced or an experiment gone wrong from UF.

    I never said they weren't. Just that you live in a swamp, that's all. Move the doublewide somewhere else.

    How many times do I have to tell you? Hate correctly.

    Well away from here
    Go buy a lizard. That should take care of it.

    Or perhaps, here's a novel idea; call an exterminator. :lol:
