South Carolina does have some BIG bugs, and some tiny ones. In our back yard now are these HUGE Banana Spiders.. Spiders body almost an inch and 1/2 long and they weave HUGE webs 4 to 6 feet wide... they are amazing and creepy at the same time. Of course mosquitoes and fleas, and deer flies, and "flying teeth" no see ums... I never leave home without bug spray or deet towelettes....

    Sheesh, that's a big bug! I've heard of those things, and I hope to never see one in person (and I'm not a bug-fearing kinda gal). Like your name for the no see'ums, LOL

    Ah, yes, I remember the Palmetto bug. We lived in St.Pete, FL for 3 years (Coast Guard) and DH beat on one for quite a spell, turned to get something to remove the body and the sucker just got up and walked away.
