The persons and events in this film
are fictitious. Any similarity to
actual aliens is uninententional.
No bugs were harmed in this production
But some of the crew got freaked out.

The actress who plays the Mom, "Jan Felt," has also been credited as "Jan Broberg Felt," "Jan Gardner," and "Jan Tanner."
Frank Gerrish, the actor who plays the cabbie has his name misspelled in the closing credits as "Frank Garrish" His son, Alex Gerrish, has his name misspelled as "Alex Garrish."
Academy Award-winning director Kieth Merrill has known "Bug Off!" director T.C. Christensen for a long time, and is credited as a story consultant for this film. His name is misspelled "Keith Merrill," a common error because of the non-standard spelling of Merrill's first name.
"James Sukahn" is probably a misspelling of "James Sukhan."
James Jordan, credited as a "story consultant" is also known as "James Gladu Jordan."
The "waiting of" portion of this film may be a riff on the title of the groundbreaking mockumentary "Waiting for Guffman."
"Waiting on Sound: The Making of BUG OFF!" has no opening credits only the words:
