What makes it worse this year is that it has been unseasonably warm and rainy this entire year. We only had a couple of freezes early on and just a ton of rain. Mosquitos are terrible right now; every time I go outside I get eaten alive. The wasps, etc. started building nests a full month early. Thus, it should not surprise me to see large specimens of insects running/flying around, as conditions have been ripe for it (global warming at its finest).

Yeah, I imagine that living in the colder climes tends to reduce the number of bugs you get, but then you have other problems (I do NOT miss shoveling snow every year).
