    You're wrong about them not biting. We got swarmed one night and were woken by them biting us as we slept.

    Sounds pretty accurate. The only issue is that mine is actually in my apartment.

    I hate these things man... As soon as I turn on the lights these things rush towards it and when I look away for just a couple of seconds there's already hundreds of them. The spiders and lizards are already full and I don't have an electric fly swatter around.

    In my native language we call it liyek (lee-yek) and yes people eat it. They mostly come after a storm or a typhoon and we don't mind it much since birds, lizards eat them but what's annoying is that they crawl under the sliding window thus getting inside the house flying around near the light bulb.

      solution: lure them out. Turn off all lights except one but turn on one by one until they are out of your home

      usually i just spray them with bug spray because they always swarm in my room and they're annoying af cuz they love shedding their wings in the bathroom and living in the shower so i kill them before they enter the bathroom

      How bad was it to get this taken care of? I just saw these swarmers appear today out of nowhere on the floor of my basement bathroom. They had lost their wings at this point. I saw more wings than actual bugs, but I took care of the ones I did find.

    I’ve been seeing swarmers coming out of my bathroom tub drain and shower drain in the last two days out of nowhere. They do flock near the window. I see no other signs in or outside anywhere. I will call a pro but does this mean the problem is definitely bad or no? Ty

      Hello , Sorry I think I have the same problem, I’m seeing swarmers are full in my house but I don’t know where are they coming from and it’s not rain season and no any any signs of other swamers outside

    Oh god now I know what thing scared the living hell out of me. I was at the beach when I see hundreds of these things everywhere. They would always swarm the lights. I saw one get on the table near me, I tried shooing it away. But then it looked at me and flew on my head. It felt like it was attacking me and I kept swatting and screaming. My parents told me to go this dark place to avoid them. I was very shaken by it and eventually our ride came.
