Oh God....Aussie flies!!! The one thing, and yes I'm serious, that would make me really think twice about going back there. Once they're on your case they never, ever give up until you kill them! If you wear glasses like me, you end up sending them flying off your face at inopportune moments in your desperation to stop them trying to feed from the corners of your eyes!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh!!! :eek: :eek: :eek:

:D

Remember the old T-shirt they used to sell,

Australias paradise, 20 billion flies cant be wrong :D


SE QLd's actually not too bad, nothing like Perth or the Outback anyway :eek:

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

Why is Perth so bad - I would have thought the Fremantle Doctor in the afternoon helped - No?

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

No way. They seem to love the place more. Obviously like the fresh breezes, wakes them up and wanting only to climb up your nose :scared: :eek:

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

Oh joy - oh well I guess I will have to string some corks from my hat then!!!

Are they bitey flies / mossies or just annoying non-bitey housefly type flies? Just wondered how much I am gonna look like I have chicken pox!

:-p

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

Or in your ears...... :eek:

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

Or just on the corner of your mouth :eek:

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

They're like house flies, but a squillion times more persistent. They land on you and you swat them, they land again and you swat them again, and again, and again, and again, on the face this time, now trying to climb up your nose, now crawling under your glasses, and of course there's a few dozen others trying to do the same.

So a tad annoying........ :mad: :mad: :mad:

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

Oh well should lose a fair few calories just swatting flies every day...

PMA :)

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

Im laughing at this thread but its not funny is it??!!!

Oh I hate flies, cant stand em!!

Whats that saying........Like a fly round sh....!!!

So think what they landed on before they land on you!! OMG!! :eek:

Yuck, soooo grossssss!! :eek:

Cheeky (need a cork hat thing and insect repellent, must remember to put that on the Oz list!)

Re: Sydney Maggot Plague
 

That's just put me right of visiting Perth :)

Is it REALLY that bad there ?
