Does your house, driveway, or work look like this? Living in the Midwest along the river, we know to expect them each year.

Did you know that a larger than normal mayfly population is a sign of a healthy body of water? So, yah for the Illinois River!

Walking into the house after walking the dog last night, a mayfly had managed to attach itself to my face, and I had no idea. That might be the creepiest things ever. Even though the bug is completely harmless, the idea of something being on you, and crawling all over you without you knowing it has to be the ickiest thing ever.

This morning while driving over the Murray Baker it felt like driving through a thick fog with the mayflies swarming everywhere. The clouds of mayflies can get so thick, they actually show up on Radar.

It honestly feels like the 5th plague of Egypt. These things are everywhere, so what do we do?

Mayflies are so fragile, it’s really difficult to get rid of them, but there is a way: MOVE!

How do you get rid of mayflies?
