Bruce you beat me on this one. I was going to say exactly the same thing. I'll take the bugs, and you can have the snow. I'll also take the heat, and you can have the cold. Sounds like a fair trade to me.

+1.....Hydrogen Peroxide is the only way to clean those slimy bugs off easily. Does'nt cost much either.
