Experts say lack of rain leads to less lovebugs this season

Written by Naples Mortgage Syndicated User on . Posted in Naples Florida Mortgage, Naples Mortgage.

FGCU Entomologist Dr. Joyce Fassbender said that lovebugs’ big season is typically from the middle of April until about the middle to the end of May. “Their young actually require really moist soils in order for the eggs to develop, for the larvae to develop, and then for them to become adults,” said Dr. Fassbender. “If we have a drought or just a really dry, late spring, then they’re not going to be able to do that.” That’s what we’ve...
