PSTeach Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 Anyone else have a bunch of gnat-flea looking bugs all over their yard?? My husband called them snow fleas (there were actually a few on the last snow), but I was wondering what they were. They were so thick on the side walk, I thought it was a big pile of mold or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulywog Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I remember seeing them and reading about them several years ago. These little critters were all over the DuBois area. I believe they were called snow fleas..................... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lavender Posted March 7, 2009 Share Posted March 7, 2009 I haven't seen them this year but I have other years. I call them snow fleas too. Lady bugs are starting again, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSTeach Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 Some how they are even getting into the bathroom. I know they aren't regular fleas. Whatever they are, they are attracted to the dampness, and are next door too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelnut Posted March 8, 2009 Share Posted March 8, 2009 I haven't seen them this year but I have other years. I call them snow fleas too. Lady bugs are starting again, too. I've killed four of those crunchy little buggers over the last two days, yuck! I had a fly in the house yesterday and a bee. They were really sluggish, which made it easy for me to get them.

Guest JenMc32 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Haven't seen snow fleas. Had tons of flies, a couple bees and a lady bug already though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
