There must be tens of thousands of them downtown right now. Anyone else seeing this?

Trying to decide if this is a euphemism or not

Didn’t BR always have this problem?

I noticed them a few weeks ago.
Don't recall ever seeing them in BR before now?

Last week when they swarmed here, walking at the top of the levee felt like walking in the rain.

Man, the potential hazards of CoviD just won’t end!
Think of the children!

They swarm around this time every year, always around Mother’s Day

I lived in the greater Baton Rouge area my whole life and I've never seen anything like this.

Oh ok, guess I never noticed them before or paid attention to what they were

We got em swarming in uptown New Orleans, too. They started way before dark. I think they might be the local variety instead of the usual formosans we usually see swarming.

Someone posted a gif of a swarm showing up on the weather radar in one of these threads last week. I wish I would have saved it, it was cool

Clouds of them here in Slidell, too.

We had a bad swarm in South Baton Rouge last year. They kept coming down the bathroom vent. But, that's the only time I remember something like that happening.

I’ve just killed a handful in my kitchen in goodwood area. I’ve never seen them here in 40 years
Posted on 5/15/20 at 8:40 pm to Ping Pong
Yup. They are everywhere

Swarming in mandeville but pretty tame compared to a couple weeks ago

Nope. Born and raised in BR and never saw the termite swarm until I moved to Nola.

Don't really remember them growing up in BR area either. Maybe there were years and I just didn't know what they were.
