Not yet, but the magnolias are blooming and that's my timeline for yellow flies.

I live on Baker Canal and when I got home last evening from having been out of town for a few days the yellow flies were here to greet (BITE) me. Hate those things...am so allergic to them. Last year I had Florida pest control do their mosquito spray around the exterior house walls & yard. It also helped control the yellow flies all summer long. I've had them spray this year also. It doesn't eradicate the yellow flies but it helps tremendously...otherwise in my neighborhood they'll just eat you alive. I'd much rather deal w/ the chemical spray effects than those truly wicked fly bites!

I live in the epicenter of yellow fly heaven. Here are some really good remedies. Try the burt's bee's insect repellant with lemongrass in it, or Bounce fabric softner sheet's. Rub the sheets all over yourself. Them little suckers will buzz ya but the don't land.:trainwreck: sorry I had ta use it just for the hell of it:floor:

I have plenty of blooming magnolias - but I thought the yellow flies came in June - I know it's close to June............
And whitey, so what if I like to use a little "imaginashun" when spelling!!! College has nothing to do with spelling!!!

Thanks for the warning. My dog and I (and hopefully hubby if he can get away) are arriving on Sunday.
SoWal with biting flies is better than here anytime.
