flies beware! - 09:00 AM
(filed under 'animal')
while i'm waiting for my fly trap to arrive & to catch the stray fly or mosquito which may get caught in the house, i got a fly gun. it really does work & it's actually quite fun. takes a bit of practice, but i've killed three flies with it already since last night. they're right that it doesn't leave a mess too. the last one i got this morning was a bit mangled but there was no squashed fly left on the wall.
just wait until the heat of the day sets in (if it does. looks like it might be a bit cooler today) & the flys come swarming in as they have for the past week. they'd better watch out now!
[edited to add: the fly gun website is quite cute. the 'know the enemy' & 'fun with flies' pages are pretty cool & even the faq section is rather amusing.]
