Water spiders, gnats, etc. You know, bugs you see in a boathouse or in the bathrooms around water.

Why would you assume that I spend time on boathouses or aquatic bathrooms?

Lol, I assume everyone has been camping near a lake or something. That's what I meant by bathrooms on water. If you have ever been by a pier, look underneath, that's a good tell as well.

A Space Noodle is a relative of a Pool Noodle, is it not?

You haven't asked a single question about boats, only about insects.

Yeah, about insects that live on and around boats.

Right, so why are you surprised that boat related context is the answer to your question

I'm not surprised, I'm asking why someone would assume I hang around boats a lot when I'm asking questions about what's around boats.

We don't really have gnats here in Seattle. It's great.

I've never seen those here, either. And they don't sound like much of a pest since they wouldn't be flying around biting you.
