Dogluver found some uninvited guests in my swimming pool yesterday. Upon some research on the internet, Dogluver concluded these bugs are backswimmers, or what is more commonly known as water wasps.
Some disturbing characteristics of these nasty guests:
1. They fly, and therefore, can come and go as they want.
2. They have air pockets which enable them to lie submerged in water for a long time.
3. They swim around on their backs and propel themselves in water with their long hind legs. Their backstroke is faster than my freestyle!
4. They BITE!
Donut Boy and I are running crazy just trying to catch and exterminate every single one of them in the pool. HELP!!!!
One word: Ahhhhh!!!!!!!
