These little bustards were like a sewing machine needle. I can't even count the lumps for sure because they are in a group. I know it's at least 30. When I was young we would mow into a swarm or drag a hay rake through them, and would drive through a cloud and maybe get a couple. Once in a while someone would swat at them at get 10-20.
The hornet spray has no effect on them and didn't even knock them down. I'll go back with more gas and fire They gotta go before the kids or visitors find them.
I mowed half a width closer to a clump of bushes than I had all year and that's where they were.
I guess I'm glad it was me instead of the Mrs....or the kids playing or fishing.
The salt in the wound...I broke the end of my index finger a few days ago...and I smacked myself and the mower several times swatting the assholes off of me...so my booger picker has a boohoo too. Makes a guy feel a little bit like a puss to whine about a finger and some tiny bug bites.
