- Description
- A little known fact is that love bugs are actually flies. They are also known as "Honeymoon flies" and the "March fly."These harmless critters emerge and feed on nectar from flowers and participate in large mating flights which often occur in open areas.
In Alabama, some species may have two mating flights a year, while others have only one. Each mating event usually lasts just a week or two. The females lay over 100 eggs and the larvae feed on decaying plant material in the soil. The flies are attracted to heat and the vibration of engines, like on air conditioners and cars.

The letter came ahead of a Senate committee hearing on the topic called by Sen. Josh Hawley of Missouri.
In a statement, Britt said Flock cameras “have proven to be a valuable tool,” but she believes “commonsense safeguards can prevent misuse by a small number of bad actors.”
In Alabama, several officers have been dismissed from their jobs after allegedly misusing the technology.

Feeders should remain out for a couple of weeks after the peak migration period to help any late-season travelers. If the nectar becomes cloudy or appears questionable, clean the feeder and replace it with a fresh batch.
