Bug problems in Florida

We camp in Florida all the time Never had an ant problem.

but, a campground in Waycross,GA. call Laura walker the ranger will Infor you of ant issues

WE've stayed in two Florida state parks in the months of april and may and experienced no problems. They were on the coast though.

Sounds like the folks from up North are parking their RVs outdoors.

They just don't learn. They might even run into some "nature".

PS: I don't know about the bears. The folks in Seminole County are claiming that all the bears are in their neighborhoods. I thought the bears were there first!

It's a no brainer for me, I'll take the bugs over snow anytime.

The one other thing I quickly found out when I was parked on a 'lake' is a bug they call the blind mosquitoes.

They are not really mosquitoes but they are so thick you have to cover your face when you go outside because they go in your eyes, nose and mouth. And they get into your MH and houses where they are 2 inches thick around the windows and ceiling when they die.

CG owners swore up and down they only come once a year for a couple of weeks. But I packed up the MH and moved! :B

After 2 years of traveling around Florida I finally found central Florida up around Ocala. No mosquitoes, a nice breeze and real trees.:C

on the west coast and northern areas seem the worst. Last year at Suwannee River State Park they carried us away....almost!

you always have to be vigilant in Florida as it doesn't get cold enough long enough to kill them all. Listen to Fla-Gypsy and Rockhillmanor. They have the keys. SEVIN dust is the best thing... if you are real desparate and don't get any, you can use COMET or some other BORAX cleaner.
