Smoke Turns Out to be Insect Swarm
This would be something to see (from The Hamilton Spectator via FireFightingNews.com):
Lovesick bugs looking for mates sent Hamilton firefighters scrambling to battle a reported high-rise apartment fire recently.When two pumpers, ladder, rescue vehicle and a district chief rolled up in front of the building on Delawana Drive a week ago, they found the "smoke at the top floor" was a cloud of millions of insects swarming over one corner of the roof.
Fire safety officer John Verbeek says this could be a first for the fire department.
"I've never heard of a building fire call where it turned out to be a mass of insects."
Whoa - that is a lot of bugs. I hope they had their insect repellent handy.
