Bugs in the trees in my yard. You were okay until I touched them, right?

Do you have bugs in the trees in your yard? Do you freak out about them? Do you hire someone professional to exterminate said bugs? Do you use a homemade pesticide? Do you kill them with fire?

I'm not certain what else I can say about having bugs in my trees. I don't recall seeing bugs like these when I was growing up, climbing the trees in our backyard. Maybe these bugs don't like cedar trees, because those were the trees that I climbed in our back yard when I was younger.

I don't climb trees much today, unless it's to trim them to keep them off of my neighbor's house, or to allow more light to hit my back yard. The combination of too much shade and owning a few dogs makes my back yard a dust bowl, and that dust bowl turns into a mud pit when it rains, and it does rain in South Louisiana! That's why I have to keep a towel at my back door, I use it to wipe the dog's paws as they come in from being outside. If I didn't do that, I'd have paw prints all over the house.

Now that I think about it, if I cut down all of the trees at my house, I'd have no more bugs, and no more mud.

Anyway, watch the video and see if you could imagine those bugs crawling across the center of your back, just out of reach of your hands.
