Return of the Midges! A sure sign that summer is arriving in Cleveland: the midges are back! If you’re new to Northeast Ohio, don’t panic—these tiny bugs may look intimidating when they gather in large swarms, but they do not bite, sting, or damage property. In fact, they’re a normal part of the Lake Erie ecosystem. This year’s swarms have been large enough to even show up on weather radar along the lakeshore.

Here are a few tips and deterrents to help keep them out of your apartment or business:
✨Keep windows and doors closed as much as possible, especially at dusk.
✨Turn off unnecessary exterior lights at night—midges are attracted to light.
✨Check that window screens are secure and free of tears.
✨If midges gather around entryways, a quick sweep or vacuum is often the easiest solution.
✨A fan near a doorway or patio can help discourage them from lingering.
✨Lemon-scented cleaners (such as Lysol Lemon or similar citrus cleaners)
✨Citronella candles for patios and balconies

The good news? Midge season is temporary (2-4 weeks), and their populations typically decrease as summer progresses.

Welcome to another uniquely Cleveland summer experience! If you’ve survived your first midge season, you’re officially becoming a local!
