I remember in the fall of 2020 a bunch of seed bugs kept getting on my jacket while I was walking through the woods... it was like they were attracted to me. There was a big spike in them that year and I remember a lot of people in my village freaking out about it. I always assumed they just migrated here temporarily. But this time in 2020 it was so so bad and they would even get on people! <br><br>Ever since then I haven't seen any in the nearby woods I use to walk through and I remember in 2021 it was really bad in a different village we visited. It was worse than ever. They were also quite aggressive there... it was like they were attracted to me again. They would get on me while I was walking and people were visibly just watching me as I walked by. <br><br>I made all this sound really random but this year I went back to the original village that was infested with them in 2020 and I saw way more than I have since. I thought it was really weird.<br><br>Are seed bugs extremely attracted to some people? I noticed this in 2020 and 2021. I seemed to attract them. I didn't notice it at all in 2022 but this year I did again.
