    Is it possible that they could be June Bugs?

    Thank you Grannie Annie
    Been looking on the web and asked on aother site :mute: and i think it's pollen beatle, not sore if it's the same as June Bugs, The car is covered in them now, I think they're after the sap which has come from the Ash Tree it's parked under

    Hi Wiseowl,
    I think these bugs will sit in the foot print of a may bug as they're so tiney, forgot to say they're about the same size as a fruit fly, and i think they are colour blind because my car is blue not yellow :snork:
