They are back, the uninvited guests who arrive as soon as the weather turns warm enough. I’m talking about bugs, insects and arachnids. In the last few weeks we are killing 2 and 3 kissing bugs each night, fortunately they aren’t making it inside the SkyCastle, but it’s not for lack of trying on their part.
They arrive after dark, when you are asleep, they are over an I checked long, crawl up to your face and suck your blood. Think of a giant mosquito with a beetle body…
They carry and spread Chagas, a parasite that causes a chronic disease that slowly eats holes in your heart and lungs, eventually leading to death.
I’m amazed at the lack of knowledge about these insert to, especially here in west Texas, I tell my neighbors about them and they seem oblivious, I suppose it’s mainly because these are nocturnal creatures that are rarely if ever seen during the day.
The other creatures that invade in warmer weather are the ants, spiders, wasps, flies, mosquitoes, fleas and ticks… It’s just a matter of knowing when to expect them and how to make it inhospitable for them.
What creepy crawlies do you deal with and what do you do about it?
