May Bugs
May bugs — blundering, clumsy beetles of early summer — often touch an ill-tempered companion where you'd hoped for a congenial one. The dream may ask where someone you expected warmth from is proving prickly and graceless, and how the gap between the company you wanted and the company you got is wearing on you.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for may bugs, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of May bugs, denotes an ill-tempered companion where a congenial one was expected.
