The Mighty Hunter

The score so far is:

Me: 12
Flies: 1

The flies only scored because they hang around on the ceilings and in order to swat them, I have to stand on a chair. I got a crick in my neck looking at the ceilings all evening, and now my neck is sore.

Happy Friday, all.

These are house flies, and it's not that warm in there. The thermostat is only at 64.

Nice try, though. :)

So regular flies go gay at 68 degrees.

Wonder what temp does that to humans?

What, not 7 in one blow? ;)

I have some leftover fly strips from my recent (Sucessfull) battle with fruit flies. I can send them back with Liz if you like, or give them to you at some other time.
