June bugs... aaarrrgghh I hate em. Bugs that give you the willies?
June bugs, or June beetles as they are sometimes called... they're here.

First of all, they always show up in May, so whoever named these things was way off.

I know they're harmless to humans... they're like derpy cows of the night time bug world, (carpenter bees being the derpy cows of the daytime bug world) ...they just stupidly fly around, bonking off of porch lights and windows, getting stuck on their backs, etc...

They just want to eat vegetation and breed, I get it... but they always end up buzzing too close to my ear and it gives me the willies. Then their little barbed legs hook onto my clothes and I can't shake them off.

I live in the woods and not many of nature's creatures bother me, but June bugs... I hate 'em. That being said, I don't kill anything (even bugs) out here if I can help it, I try to live and let live. When we used to have chickens they would eat them up like crazy, it was very satisfying to watch.

About the only other bug that gives me the willies is the cicada killer wasps. Those will be coming later in the summer.

At least I don't live in Florida with the palmetto bugs... or in south America. *shudder*

Pest . . . or snack? June bugs are the ‘croutons of the sky’

June bugs can be serious pests of ornamental and agricultural plants, lawns and golf courses, or they can be a crunchy snack for a bird — or human.

Look up scorpion whip. Unlike actual scorpions they are fairly harmless and even beneficial. However, after getting stung by two scorpions and killing hundreds it's the one scorpion whip that gives me nightmares!

I have never seen a June bug in May nor July!
1dunno1
Have you ever considered moving??

Also, I've never been close to one. Last night there was a big spider on my ceiling, above my bed. It seemed to pick up my fear thoughts. Sure enough, it insta stopped smack above my bed. Froze there for like seemed like 20 min.

Then started backing up, froze above my pillow. UGH!!!!

Then hurled itself down and I sprayed it but it fell behind my headboard. I was so dizzy from the whole ordeal, had to lie down... with it behind me. I lost consciousness with the lights on. Dunno where it went, here we go it's night 2.

Yikes, I guess I'm getting off easy with the June bugs!

I try to catch and release all the bugs that sneak in my house, but that guy... well he would be a challenge!

Psychic spiders? I'll take a polite pass on those!

When are you gonna get that haircut you so desperately need! Having hair down to your feet is gross and dirty and not at all attractive. Looking like Cousin It is not the least bit attractive.
