* Yeah, I figured it must be the geckos or some of the other lizards eating them. . .I've only had a few this year. Had 2 "bonded" pairs in the house last week before a rain, though. For me though, the geckos are nastier. Droppings on windowsills and LOTS of eggshells every time you have to...
* They used to be down here when I was a kid, clouds of them flew in front of bad summer storms off the Everglades (so, maybe yours are from the hurricane???). Haven't see more than just a few since the geckos took over. We always thought they were blind, bite-less mosquitoes.
