Floyd's going mental. There are swarms of beetles whacking into the back sliding screen door and there are also termites swarming.
There don't seem to be many termites swarming at the moment, but give them time....
I'm hoping the bugs stop soon. I've turned out the light to stop Floyd leaping around, catching them and chomping them.
They aren't even the pretty Christmas beetles.
I'd take a photo but the beetles have spiky legs and I don't want them all over me (and I don't want Floyd all over me, either!).
Update:
EEEEEEEEEEuuuuuuuuwwwww
Floyd thinks the beetles are self-throwing, crunchy little treats.
Ick.

Are they referred to as 'stink beetles' Kae?
Hi Cav
Not stink beetles, when they swarm they get into the house, and I don't know how. These look like big lawn beetles. Quite big.
I suggest you be guided by Floyd's educated tastebuds and try some yourself.
Deep fry them in oil at 190°C. That makes everything look, smell and taste delicious.
Awww, Floyd is only saving you from the nasty beasties, good boy Floyd.
I will subjugate myself to Floyd our new canine overlord and his insect masters.
Pouring rain here, but no swarms, thank goodness!
Beetles ... definitely eeewwww!
No need to publish this Kae, but I have a new blog...

Interesting. I look forward to reading more. I'd love to write my memoirs, they'd be a rollicking read up to about the age of 30 - but with middle age I have deveoped CRAFT*.
Shame that the "Book Within" name was taken for the site name.
*can't remember a f'king thing.
What name do you suggest Kae?
I dunno.
I assume that you couldn't use
www.thebookwithin.blogspot whatever as someone else had used it?
lifeoftheboofheadedlarrikin
tee hee.
Have a think about it, if you're going to write your memoir give it a meaninful name to you.
I wanted to call my blog "annoyancesandirritations" but some other bugger had it, and I'd already jagged the www address, so I had to use kae's bloodnut blog. I wish I could change it now (I wished I could have changed it right after I grabbed it, but being a novice at this I didn't think to use the name of the blog as the address).
Hang on, i'll look something up...
"then what, Grandad?" without the spaces?
Trying to look at some synonyms but the connection is too slow.
