When you spy one ant, one termite, one roach do you assume that's all there is or that you may have an infestation? What do you do about it?

How do you get that women are pests from this question?  She's talking about insects.

You know she is not talking about bugs. 
She is talking about alleged abuse by Kavanaugh. I have know RosieG many years and been friends for many years. And I know how her question follow one each other. 

Take a look at Don Barzini's response and her reply.  Sometimes a question is just a question.

SIGH. This what is out there L. This is what I have to endure. People telling me what I mean and telling others that that what I ask isn't really what it seems to be but a metaphor for something else.  I am beyond amazed and not in a good way! :(

I know what you mean.  Everyone is quick to judgment.  Happy Saturday. :)

:):):)

I am embarrassed for you m2c. YOU ARE DEAD WRONG.  Get a grip! Read my question about the disappearance of flying and crawling critters. Read the fine response plus helpful link I received from an Answermug member. Your brain is clouded with partisan politics and you see boogey men everywhere. Sheesh. Good GRIEF!

My apologizes. 

Accepted. When in doubt please ask me what I mean and I will tell you. I don't lie and I have never lied to you. Okey dokey. Let's move on. ((hugs) thank you for the apology.

You know what's so weird DB? I'm gonna whisper this to you. For months now we haven't seen a roach or an ant. Fortunately we haven't ever seen termites in this house. We do see an occasional fly but that's it. Last year the mosquitoes ate me alive. This year I haven't had one bite. Something strange is going on and I'm not sure what it is. Have you experienced the same thing? It's not that I miss seeing the little critters but it's not our norm. Thank you for your reply! :)

It's kinda weird where we are L. Haven't seen an ant inside or OUTSIDE in so many months I've lost count. We'd see a roach or two in the garage or the backyard once in awhile. Not lately. Not at all. Not even one. It's kinda spooky. I wonder why? Thank you for your reply! :)

I'm not sure why this is happening, but I'm not complaining.  I've also noticed that we don't have as many flying insects around either.  We have quite a few butterfly bushes around our development.  A couple of years ago, there were more butterflies than you could count.  Now, I think I've seen four or five.  You would think that with all the rain we've had here in NYC this summer, there would be plenty of mosquitoes, but not those either.  They did do a ground spray a few weeks ago and that must have helped.  

I keep forgetting to wish you a Happy Friday - my apologies. :)

No apologies needed m'dear. I know without your actually saying it that you do. Friends are like that right?  I know a few years ago there was a big BUZZ about the vastly diminishing supply of bees. I'm not sure if they ever found out why. I wonder if climate change could have anything to do with it? I'm not complaining either but it is noticeable. Last year I got bitten by mosquitos a few times. The year before they ate me alive! I was so miserable. This year? One bite several months ago. That's it! Go figger! Thank you for your reply! :)

Thanks.  I knew you would understand. :)

One explanation for the collapse of the bee population is the overuse of pesticides.  It's a very serious problem because without pollination, there is no food supply.  There are other flying insects that pollinate, but bees are one of the main sources.  I wouldn't be surprised if climate change is also a factor.
