## Resource

Tiny flying insects are swarming central Vermont, especially around the White River Valley and Montpelier — they’re fungus gnats, and the state entomologist says the recent wet weather created the perfect breeding conditions. If dry weather hits, they may vanish, but for now, seal cracks, check screens, and dim outdoor lights to keep them outside. A reminder that even the smallest bugs can stir up big questions — and science has the answers. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
