Burning Man, favorite summertime gathering place for Silicon Valley’s VC-funded shirtless mollybros, is combating a large-scale pest infestation at Blackrock City, Nevada. Crawling over every surface of the pop-up desert city—biting, sowing mayhem and discontent—this scourge of pestilence has proven damn near impossible to banish from the once-peaceful windswept playa.
Oh, and there’s a lot of bugs there this year too:

Bugs on the playa this year. Not normal.
Shouldn't a dust storm knock them out?
