I have 2 common house flies in my apartment at the moment.
I look like like King Kong on the Empire State Building, trying to swipe at them.
I need to buy some bug spray.
Anyone else having a bug problem this summer? |

2 flies? You should see my dad's place in the country. He is Lord of the flies.
We've had 1 major flying roach (or whatever) and 2~3 mosquitoes so far this year. I think you'll survive. |

I have had much worse...it's just since i've been in my new place, I haven't had any major bug problems. Now 2 flies are nothing, granted,....but I have no idea how the hell they got into my place. |

Great thread. Never end the intellectual debate or stunning excitement, I always say... |

There is spray for that at many medium-sized mini-supermarkets at the corner of most streets. Shoot it parallel to the ceiling, and let it fall down from there so the flies don't escape. Douse the room good. Make sure you hide the food from the spray, etc. Don't sit around and breathe it, either. Leave for a while. |

My gf got 10 bites lastnight and I got none!! We can't see the damn thing so a spray will be got today to sort that b!@#$%d out!! We have some ants that come and go as well so we never leave food out and always wash out the cans and bottles thus killing the smell. No matter what we do those critters keep on coming!! |

The mosquitoes at this time of year here, post-Monsoons on the southern coast, are not as bountiful as before but they are a problem because they seem to be smarter, smaller and faster. |

Do you ever give a thumbs-up to the threads you actually enjoy? I think you'd catch more flies with honey than with vinegar (just to stay on topic.) |

Spraying potent toxins around your apartment, well, I think that was the bugs' plan all along -- good way to eliminate them pesky humans. Its just stupid to contaminate your own nest with lethal chemicals. |
