    OH no - that's awful and they aren't all that easy to get rid of. My brother had them several years ago when he still lived in FL. They had an exterminator do the regular spraying, but the critters were back in a few months. He ended up having to have the house "tented". What a pain that was.

    Hoping yours are in the early stage and easily eliminated.

    In which case the boot might be applicable.

    We don't know yet. The exterminator guy is there with my husband as I type this. Possible that the damage at this point is minimal.

    Well, boots up everyone!!

    Here's to all our Veterans!! Looks like I will be a Veteran of the war between humans and bugs!! FLorida bugs are mutants from hell. Did you ever see one of the palmettos that live down here? You can put a saddle on them and ride them to work they are so big!!

    Get hold of em and get rid of em quick mate, before they DO some damage.
    It doesn't take long for the little monsters to eat a house.

    Just a cautionary note from someone who has been down this road: There are termites in every lawn (especially in Florida), they are not necessarily doing damage, and every bug guy's job is to sell you the full treatment. Health skepticism is a good thing. Just sayin'.... Good luck, though.

    Round for the bar! At noon we're headed out camping for the weekend (with 20 or so friends) at a CAMPGROUND WITH A WINERY ON SITE!! How perfect is that?!!

    I'm coming to the winery with you, but in my case, make it a "whinery"!!
