Kenner they are horrible, luckily our streetlight is out. We have the curtains and blinds drawn and no outside lights on.

It's bad out there right now if you are by any light. Went out for a second and was covered in them.

So I know this is a yearly thing, but once you survive one night a year are you good until next year?

Weird. I'm off of Bonnabel and haven't seen a single one. My lights are on outside and so is the streetlight

Supposedly really bad in Mandeville. It lasts like a month up there, but only a week down here. I've seen like 5 all year so far

My 3 y/o son and I had a ball sitting at Sonic in Metairie watching about a half dozen lizards feasting, while we waited for our milkshakes.

It is weird. They are all over River Ridge, but my street has none.

5 years ago I never had an issue with these turds. Now they are unbearable.

Is this just a New Orleans/Lake Pontchartrain issue, or is it all across south LA?
