Anybody else noticing a lot of flies in your yard?

[OK Corgi Rancher]

Weirdest thing... I was overrun with flies in Olustee. Some mosquitoes, not a lot.

Here, we've seen maybe 2 or 3 flies since we've lived here. Not a single mosquito. Chiggers...little bit different story. The little bastards eat me alive...don't seem to bother my wife.

Thing must look like a fly swatter

Your wife may be wearing Avon skin so soft. Works around here anyways.

Flies have been horrible…until today. Mostly no flies and I bought new swatters yesterday. We had worn the other two out

Not many flies here but the average mosquitos like usual but we had a hard time fighting small black ants in the house this year for some reason i finally mixed up some baking soda and sugar and put out and it either worked or they left on their own but no more ants in the house

We've got pigs, chickens and cows . But no flies, are they hard to raise ? Might like to pick up some if their good eating.

I use fly predators, and they make a big difference.

Intended for horses, but I don’t know why they wouldn’t work with any livestock.

I didn't get a single mosquito bite this summer but yes flies are worse than I remember them ever being. A few years back we made some dollar store fly traps that worked SO good, I think they were bringing flies in from several streets over.

We don't have small flies but we our share of horse flies. Aggressive hard biting mothers. We've also got lots of mosquitoes and grasshoppers.

Once you get one of these babies, you never have enough flies! The most fun you can have with your clothes on.

I’ve got mine equipped with a laser aiming device, I don’t miss!

Just don’t shoot the fly on the cabinet above your wife’s pot of stew, ask me how I know!
