Fkukcing Gross!!

Flies, bloody flies everywhere, WTF?

We don’t have a garbage tip for a back yard, the animals ‘business’ is cleaned and disposed of thoughtfully, and still flies, SOOOOOOOO many flies like you wouldn’t believe, disgusting and unbelievable amounts of them.

Tactics, tactics. Anyone have any ideas? Say, for instance, putting down some lime, which as a primary would be great for the grass and as a nice bonus; a deterrent to the damned flies!

Anyways, we were brainstorming the idea, and Jay went to him mummy to ask if she had any ideas (because we’re useless men that know not the ways of woman), and he came back with these…. I dunno, containers, that you fill with a supplied sachet and add water.

Do you know what Im talking about?

You add the H2O, it gives off a foul and mysterious odour, attracting the flies, they crawl in getting trapped and being killed by the special liquid and help to reduce the population.
Sure the thing says, keep out of doorways and out of the house as it stinks and attracts them.

We put one up, and i though, this little half cup of water and green soup isn’t going to do shit all.

I woke up this morning….

Is that not the single grossed thing you’ve ever laid your eyes on. Green fly soup. YUM.

Still has not helped with the fly problems.

Soliloquy.

Eww. That is all.

I’d scull that for a dare. What privileged planet have you lived on? I’ve seen WAY grosser things but then I worked as a nurse for a bit…

well… it has done something to reduce the population… or you’d justhave green soup, not green fly soup. what kind of fly are they? If it is something like a blowfly, then its probably a dead animal or person of some sort in the garden/neighbours garden. When ever someone says “you catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar” I always like to point out you can catch even more if youuse shit. RYN: Of course I haven’t discussed it with him, that would be considered to be a posative step in the right direction. Who do you think I am? x

I read this and thought of you and Wil: I’ve had a very sick husband before. The laundry list of things we’ve tried to get him well would make us sound crazy. Everything from those probiotic yogurts, to colonoscopies, to endoscopies, to about ten different medications. Finally, we found the answer, and a “cure”. David can’t digest anything oily, and he just can’t stomach meat. I cut that out whencooking, and he got better. To “cure” his stomach, and stop the throwing up, he eats candies called Ginger Chews. You can buy them at Shaws, and a few other grocery stores or order direct from http://www.gingerpeople.com. This sounds crazy, but when someone you love is suffering, you try things that otherwise sound a bit crazy to cure them. David isn’t cured, but at least he doesn’t throw up every morning anymore

with a bit of luck if you keep going with it it will eventually kill anything else coming into your house too. i say keep using it, at least it will be 50 less flies in your house
