MFers are swarming me everywhere I go in BR. Not sure what contributes to the increase in them, but damn they’re annoying.

Supposedly Victoria's Secret Amber Romance is the best repellent for Gnats. But you got smell like a French hoe.

I made an assumption. Silly me. 99% of the time when I see this topic it’s fishing related.

Have you been under a rock, they have been like this the last 5 years or so and will be around until it starts hitting 90-95 degrees

Speaking of annoying, shouldn't the Love Bugs start showing up soon?

Saw a single love bug the other morning at work chilling on a steam line. It was 50° so he was probably trying to avoid freezing or something.

The gnats on the other hand, them frickers don't give a shite. It doesn't matter where I'm at, even in a halfass ammonia leak, they're swarming.

Pawpaw says they're deadly. You beat yourself to death trying to get em off.

Those only get bad in September

These bull gnats are bad. People starting to lose chickens around here to them.

I made it about 10 minutes playing with my dog outside yesterday before I flipped out and started spraying everything in sight with Talstar.

Find an Avon Dealer and get you some of this. You may use it every hour but it works.

Avon Skin so Soft.

Run to Victoria Secret in the mall and ask them for the stuff for bugs. Its that Amber Romance spray and the lady knew exactly what I was looking for. I went to Cocodrie in early March and the gnats were THICK. We went through an entire 12oz bottle in a day and half but it kept the gnats away.

That would be a NO on the gnats. They’re still swarming.

Finally encountered them in Pineville. Incredibly annoying, but these don't bite. Bigger than most too.
