For the most part…I love Summer and it’s my favorite season of the year because I am an outdoorsy type of person and my passion is being on the beach. There is just something emotionally happy about sunshine, warmer temps and fresh air!
With that said, there are many things that I hate about the Summer season and today, I thought I would share them with all of you and perhaps you wouldn’t mind sharing with me some of the things you hate about Summer too!
1. Humidity (bad hair days)
2. Bugs (mosquitoes, bees, ants, spiders, etc.)
3. Poison Plants
4. Snakes
5. Loud music blasting from cars passing by
6. Litter (people litter more during the warmer months)
7. Urination in public pools
8. Extreme Heat (temps over 90+)
9. Traffic Jams in extreme heat
10. Severe Weather Storms (tornado’s, hurricanes, lightening, etc.)
11. Inconsiderate Beach Go’ers (changing clothes on beach)
12. Cigarette Smokers (who throw butts out of car windows)
13. Tourists (great for economy but cause us traffic jams)
14. Crappy Deodorants (too much sweating)
15. Dog Walkers (who let dogs crap in my yard)
16. Re-runs on TV (too much of that going on!)
17. Kids (running thru neighborhood unsupervised all summer long)
18. Mud Puddles
19. Weeding (love gardening but hate weeding)
20. Grass Mowing

Mowing is one thing I really dislike about summer. Not so much actually mowing, but all of the mowing that goes on around us. We live in a rural area with few neighbors, but some of them spend at least part of every day mowing. And one of them mows for several minutes at a time, with pauses in between, so it’s even worse than a constant drone.
I love the sounds of summer–birds, wind in the trees, crickets–but all that mowing drowns it out and weighs heavily on my head.
There! Got that off my chest. LOL
Many of the “hates” on your list would be on mine as well. #1 would be the heat, but, #2 would be having to wear shorts that don’t cover my “thunder thighs”
What a very good post about What I hate about summer! I hate the bugs!! And people letting their dogs go to the bathroom in my yard. Pick it up! And the reruns are terrible!

Those are the same things I hate too! I am all bit up right now!
I live in Florida..summer started in April! SO HOT.
1. bugs 2. high heat (hit 90 here today, 95 tomorrow – ugh!)
We don’t get humidity (very little) or hurricanes (none) or tornadoes (very infrequently)
Summer in Colorado is very good. So are the other seasons.
Great list and very true. I like mowing the yard in some cases though to be out in the sun, but when I want to. I love the fresh fruit in summer but hate the fruit flies that come with it. Camping is fun except for he bugs and humidity. This year places have seen horrible weather already. There are good and bad to all seasons…summer included.

Good one! I dislike those fruit flies too! I forgot to add something to my list…I hate WORMS and I hate it that they come out after it rains and lay on my sidewalk and in my driveway! Ewww, disgusting worms!
Ewww is right! Yuck.
