ABC 7 - It's something a lot of people have noticed around Southern California lately: bugs.
Bugs, bugs and more bugs, everywhere you look.
"All of those rains have resulted in more water, specifically more stagnant water in areas throughout the state and Southern California," said Dr. Alec Gerry, an entomologist at the University of California, Riverside.
"All of those increased areas with stagnant water are likely increasing the number of mosquitoes being produced, similarly with other non-biting midges that are produced in aquatic sites," he said.
Gerry said we should expect the increase in bugs to last longer than usual.
