Fly me to the moon!

Living in the south has it's attributes, many which I have expressed with much enthusiasm and gusto utilizing this Blog for that praise but on some occasions, not too many, we do have annoying flying insects that were placed here by whomever that man/woman almighty for what reasons we have yet to determine. If you had been wondering of which tiny critter I was speaking of; why it is the fly, one of the ones that is universal, not unlike the cockroach.

Damp, moist or dusty weather seems to attract these species of non necessity to the world?
And most of you thought it was just garbage, horse barns, dead matter or feces, etc., eh?
Nah, cleanliness is next to godliness so it is said but flies don’t seem to care that your garbage is contained and covered tightly, and your yard is un-littered of doggy dos and as far as you know nothing has passed away recently in that yard; at least we can’t locate anybody!

Flies spread disease and to me they are just yucky, sorry to get so technical.
And unfortunately or perhaps fortunately they are actually prevalent here at this time, and are not a portion of my eye disorders symptoms, they are way too big to blame on a vitreous humor tear!

For those of you who believe in reincarnation I will now request you to not look at these next few sentences, since you will feel the need to accuse me of murder!

For that is just what I did today, my count for those little insect critters deaths is now up to seven, for just today! Horrifying, when you think that was just the ones inside of our home, since Hubby does go in and out constantly and Skipper does too!

My method for the kill is to wait until they are on a window or the floor and then wham bam thank you ma’am or sir, I really don’t know how to tell, but just to add to my murderous behavior I do hope it was the females, squash those breeders!
I am proud to say it worked today for me those seven times.
The weapon of choice has been the all utilitarian swatter of yore but if in a bind tissues suffice rather nicely without getting you full of the squishy guts.
Flushing the remains is my way of disposal.

I am not a hired gun and you may try my methods at home if you care or dare to…let’s face it whatever works!

Who would have thunk it that I would dedicate an entire Blog to those adult maggots!
Yep, that is what they are!

Sorry, don’t get nightmares from reading all this, but do try to have a very good night and count those blessings and we will too!
