Do love bugs exist where you live?

Black mating bugs that smash all over your car, try to fly into your mouth or ears, etc.
And what determines their range? Soil type? If you are driving south suddenly without any indication you are then in love bug country

They are in North La but much less prolific than the I 10 corridor

It's been awhile since we've had a bad season but I remember driving down the road when they were like rain drops. I wonder if the mosquito spray is killing them?

In South Alabama, they are terrible. Haven’t seen them yet this year.

Haven't seen them since I've been living in DFW.

Drove from Atlanta to Troy, AL this weekend. Started hitting them around Columbus, GA, I think.

They are swarming pretty bad south of Baton Rouge.

I haven't seen a single one yet this year in the Jones Creek area of BR

Swarms are peaking in SW Alabama; can't even open your mouth outside. Is anything more annoying?

My gump wife said she'd never seen a lovebug until she moved to South LA

Saw my first pair just an hour ago. September in BR. Like clockwork.

You can thank the Univ. of Florida for them even existing in the world.

They are here in south Georgia, just north of Tallahassee but they are not as bad this year.

We used to pull those dirty sex maniacs apart. Males didn’t last too long afterwards.

Lovebugs are actually from Central America. They migrated through Texas and Louisiana, before making their way to Florida. They can now also be found in Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia among other states, even into South Carolina. Still, Florida seems to be where their populations thrive.
