    They congregate in sunny places in the fall for mating purposes. Spray the sunny wall with bug spray.

    I will. Thanks for the advice. This year has been specially insane. Thousands of them all over. In the food, in the bed, in the shower. They have taken over!

    I think older houses with brick walls taking in the sunshine have the combination of unsealed gaps around windows, through mortar gaps, and under the eaves, along with the warm place to "meet up". . . . . and lots of those "trash trees" they feed on. . . . .

    the plague will not last into December. . . .

    When I was a kid there was a box elder tree on the fence line between my house and the neighbor. Millions upon millions of what I've always called fire bugs (box elder bugs). Anyway, Hitler was to Jews what I was to fire bugs. Hundreds upon hundreds of days spent killing them in new and creative ways.

    I'm surprised I didn't turn out to be a serial killer. There's still time I guess.

    How is it that Franklin drunk is smarter than all of us put together?

    In the city, the trees usually need professional removal. The power company took out one for me, I should probably call them to discuss removal of another. . . .

    Most of the tree was on the neighbor's side of the fence. The tree had grown into the fence. Besides, If we had gotten rid of the tree what would I have done for fun?

    (I was 4-7 when I did all this)
