Bugs

One of the reasons winter is great is that we don't have to deal with them!

There are many in Illinois that remember a time decades ago when cicadas were so thick, people had to remove them with snow shovels.

I am not a fan of bugs. I know they serve a needed purpose, but I'd prefer they do it in a different place than I am.

Skip the pesticides and give this spice you may already have in your kitchen a try to keep ants from invading your house.

Imagine the mere sight of a caterpillar nestled amidst your otherwise delectable fare. That thought alone is enough to ruin an entire dining experience.

An Illinois woman recently shared a picture of an insect she found in her home, and it looks like something straight out of a nightmare.
