Complaints

OK. So I haven't said a word all summer about being eaten alive by bugs (Phil has probably heard it a couple times) but I can't take it anymore.

We went on a pleasant 30 minute walk yesterday and I came home with...

9 bites from these guys






AND two of these critters attached!! Their stupid heads were already burrowed into my skin...GROSS!!

That really, really, really sucks. In fact, we have no bugs here in California. Just another reason for you guys to move back!!! Hurry!

HI. Long time listener, first time caller. Um. ya .we have the same problem here in Topica Iowa and I started using bug spray. Ya, my husband brought it home, like a spray can. You should look it up. I'll take my answer over the air. Good bye.

Yucky! I'm sorry. I complain when I get one bite, but nine! Come back to Cali already! Our kids REALLY need to be friends.

All you need is a good dose of poison ivy, and you should be totally covered.

Chris. Too funny. Although I had reason to complain...nothing can or ever will trump your experience(s) with poison ivy. I'll go for the ticks and mosquitos any day!
