Susan,

I think they're midges. They won't bite. Food for swallows.

Subject: [Tweeters] Fill full of bugs!


Tweeters,
This evening my boyfriend and I went to the Fill to stretch our legs and try and see some of the recent sightings mentioned on Tweeters recently. However, we encountered such horrid masses of gnats ( or whatever they were) that we couldn't take it and had to leave. It was like one continuous cloud of bugs all along the main path and well into the loop ( we finally turned around and hurried out of there.) I've been a regular at the Fill for years and have never experienced such numbers of them. So I'm both issuing a warning and asking if anyone has an explanation, and knows how long this infestation should last.
