Can you imagine how bad the insects are going to be with no winter??? We are already experiencing the white flies like crazy. But the early beauty of the flowers almost makes it worth it.
I don’t think anything kills the insects down here, although I will say the drought last year must have caused the “love bugs” to move on to better places. I don’t know the real name of these bugs, but I think they plague Florida as well - you never see one, they are always connected.... and cover the front grill of your vehicle in the spring. I can’t recall seeing a pair at all last spring!
