[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Today I was talking to colleagues and we all plan to move to Florida. Just saying.[/quote] Living in Florida is so different than vacationing. The unbearable heat, humidity, and daily thunderstorms of the summer, coupled with icy A/C run in a desperate attempt to drive down humidity indoors. [b]The bugs. Most of you haven’t seen cockroaches the size of butterflies, or the depth of mosquitos that they used to helicopter spray to control.[/b] Living on the beach — probably worth it if you can swing the $M and afford private school. Anywhere else (looking at your Orlando), WTF. [/quote] This is so ridiculous, I've lived in different parts of FL and I've never seen these huge cockroaches you speak of. Mosquitoes are no worse than in NoVa. I did have some little tiny ants in my kitchen last year but I put out Terro ant traps and they were gone in days and haven't come back. Occasionally a little lizard will find a way into my home but they don't do any damage and eventually find their way out. I do not find the heat to be unbearable, even in the summer, although I do find mid-Atlantic winters to be unbearable. It's a fine trade off for me and plenty of others.[/quote]
