When are love bugs in Florida?

Love bugs are present in Florida from May through September, with peak activity occurring in May and September. They are most abundant in the southern part of the state and can be a nuisance to people and animals. Love bugs are attracted to light, so they are often found near streetlights and other sources of light at night. They are also attracted to heat, so they can be found in large numbers on warm days. Love bugs are not known to bite or sting, but they can be a nuisance when they get in people's hair, eyes, and mouths.
