Can of Lynx (other deodorants are available) and a lighter. Napalm the blighters.

You lot should live here, middle of goat and cow farms ! Stick flypaper up and it looks like a furry snake within minutes.

No flies, no Mosquitoes, no spiders. My cat Kropotkin kills everything in sight.

Unfortunately he kills my net curtains as well pinning the blighters against them whilst tearing them to shreds.

It’s the little black thunder bugs that are a pain in the backside, back of the ears in this neck of the woods.

Can I swear on this forum?

Can cats catch flies like some dogs can? One of my dogs in the past could catch them and eat them with ease,though the mutt i have now scarpers when they land on him,sending him hiding behind the settee!

Was this your dog?

I got one of those in Vancouver about fifteen years ago. An awesome weapon.

How about putting some fly food in the microwave and when they go in for it,slam the door shut,put the thing on and watch them pop?

You are thinking of putting dog 5h1t in the microwave?

Seriously though killing flies in the microwave does not sound like a hygienic idea.

Round here they hang dog poo bags on trees to jeep the flies otherwise occupied.
