Deer Fly Season on the Coast – Oh My!
SUMMARY: In coastal Mississippi, residents brace themselves each year for Deer Fly season in May, following the Sand Fly season in March. These pests, known for their buzzing and biting, are a significant nuisance, targeting exposed skin, particularly around the head due to their attraction to heat. Deer flies, which females require blood, thrive in the area's marshlands, feasting on various mammals, including humans. Despite the lack of effective chemical deterrents, residents employ creative strategies like using insect nets or sticky traps to combat these flies. These efforts, while somewhat effective, also inadvertently provide a form of exercise and a shared experience for the community, humorously dubbed the “Deer Fly dance”.
