Hi @agmoore, nice to read you on my blog. Your comment made me review some statistics on the distribution of these insects in the US, there are several of these species that have been sighted in different cities. The one in the link you shared with me is a Leptoglossus phyllopus, another very similar species and of the same genus, the Leptoglossus gonagra which is the one in this post seems to have only been reported in Florida, but as you mention, it is likely that the movement of people has managed to disperse the insect to other parts, even strong gusts of wind can carry them to other places. They are not very tolerant of low temperatures, this probably somewhat prevents them from growing in large numbers or being seen year round, winter is their worst enemy 😄.
For my country the rains continue, today it rained a bit hard and I had electrical problems, also the change of weather caused me some flu, but I prefer cool weather than strong heat, so I'm happy 😄😄. Thank you so much for sharing the post and for your visit, I wish you a good weekend for you and your family 🙂 .
