No, they are already here. Just not zombie ones. Alot of times you hear them trilling in the evening.

Ask your bug guy what they are doing if anything to prepare for the invasion. Different bug to clean off windshield and in greater numbers.

Speaking of bugs, what is it with the goddamn roaches and palmetto bugs down here? I keep an immaculate home, and I still get random, short lived infestations of both on occasion. And the rare wolf spider. And whenever I come home from vacations my house has these super long, stringy webs and a bunch of small spiders. And i'll sometimes get these weird "mini-flies" for lack of a better word.

Lived all over the world, never had this issue until I moved to Pensacola. Advice?

We use a company called home team ,they treat 4 times a year and you can call if needed no charge . We called once for a large spider [to us] and called to-day for 1 roach . The flying biting bugs no see ums etc you are pretty much on your own....get OFF spray and home depot spray "home defense " . They are here now but they are saying we need to up grade our coverage 400.00 min. .

We treat our home ourselves with the stuff you can by in the hardware stores. Never have too much of a problem, make sure your doors and windows are sealed, especially the bottom of the doors. I've watch a palmetto bug crawl right under our front door so we treat it weakly and soon I'll be finding a way to seal it up better!

Try Demon WP… do a barrier inside and outside. If it crawls it dies. Rarely ever see an insect and it’s usually in the death throes. I spray once a month

Turn off your porch light. It helps keep the bugs from coming inside your house. I don't know how or why, but I swear it works

This is too much. Im still worried about murder hornets killing me and being butt raped by HIV monkeys on the loose. Im going to nuke my house with chemicals that kills living things and then live in it. Totally safe.

Don't forget the cannibal gas looters. Luckily we weren't in the path of the eclipse so we dodged the John Wick vampires. Whew!

Keep all of your drains covered, roaches use the drains and sewer system as a highway to travel into your house. If you keep all of your drains capped when not in use, you'll reduce the amount of roaches getting in. Can't help with the spiders.

Don't forget snakes in the toilets... welcome to the South.

I think the 100 drones Iran launched at Israel is the biggest issue now.

Welcome t' the war kid.

I was told by a bug guy years ago that you'll notice most critters trying to get in during temperature changes. His opinion was that they followed any air of a higher/lower temperature coming out around/under doors. Might be BS, but I see more bugs as seasons change.

I buy concentrated insecticide from Tractor Supply and spray the yard. If you don't do the whole yard, at least do a 8-10 foot line of death.
