There is the sudden appearance of many small winged insects. They have a short life expectancy I hope.
Probably termites. Yeah, they’ll shed those wings soon.
Either that or carpenter ants.
If you were here, it’d be love bugs.
Thanks for the optimistic thoughts. Hopefully their life-cycle will take them to dormancy before dawn. Or maybe they could go visit you!! 
Are they inside or outside?
What kind of bugs? We have moths. We have them because we have birds and something in their food is infested. I hate moths. I hate cheap bird food even more but I can’t convince the man in the house.
Same here.
We forgot about an open box of cereal and the moths invaded.
Summer is nearly over, so they will be gone soon.
At least there were no roaches this year - thanks to this chap and his companions-in-arms(or legs.)

Over the last few days, I’ve seen some insect that looks like a cross between a house fly and a locust. I didn’t grow up in West Virginia. The bugs here are strange. I do have a few preying mantis in my backyard though. They’re nice.
The bird food is infested. The larvae poo all over the seed. Your birdies want fresh food!
Just keep the food in the freezer (or fridge)–no more moths.
Have you discussed nutritional deficiencies with that man? Considering that bird food isn’t that expensive, even when it’s expensive, is it nice to compromise at the expense of your friends’ health? I’m sure if the birds were dogs, he’d be buying primo chow. I’d be inclined to keep the birds and get rid of HIM.
Cicada? ← clicky
This is also about the time of the Northern Hemisphere’s migration of many species of aphids from the spring to winter hosts. It gives me an odd sense of grandeur. Many different species of ants also disperse the winged males and winged virgin queens when the fall rains start. We had a remarkable swarm of one of the smaller species of ant in my trailer court.
Don’t you wish you were a frog?
Nope, that’s not it. The cicada body is vertical. This insect is horizontal in orientation. In size this insect falls right between a housefly and a locust. It’s wings have the striking veining of a locust and your picture of a cicada.
There are a lot fewer flying bugs in London than in Rochester NY, but there are some, and houses here don’t have window screens. For an exorbitant amount you can get custom made window screens. This year hasn’t been bad but if we have another summer like last year I’m either getting the custom screens or getting some mesh and a bunch of duct tape..
We’ve had the greatest number of tunnel spiders I’ve ever seen. That’s in addition to hundreds of other kinds of spiders. Amazingly we haven’t had any big-butt spiders but we’ve had enormous tunnel spiders everywhere. This weekend I’m initiating a pogram.
No bugs tonight. Much better.
Zwounds, how I do not miss them things!
Just the thought of that gives me palpitations.
So, the salesman who convinces the English they need screens could make a pretty penny?
