you have the gist of it.It's the flip that I like.
I haven't the heart to splat or mortein them.I open a window,spray them with starch and watch them glide out.

Same with sunny coast, you just dont get the bush flies that plague most of OZ in summer.

I expected them in perth, partner had warned me, but northern NSW kiama, and melbourne, really surprised me. Can remember taking the kids to a park in melb, really empty, suddenly discovered why Had only lived there in winter, and didnt think of the CBD as a place with several million flies

I never leave the office between October and march or set foot outside the house due to the fly problem.

In all seriousness, I find them a problem a few days a year.

Humm we don't get many I killed half a dozen with the Mortein last night 4 males & 2 females

Can't wait til Friday, nothing like sheep poo for attracting millions of the buggers and we have sheep poo arriving to go under the new turf being laId...

If you were closer, I could offer to come and add to the pile!

Flies - chief guides them outside, haven't had a spray can in the house since the UK.

Find the flies in perth quite entertaining.... One minute they're lazing on the couch, next minute the hounds from hell are ninja attcking thin air.... Flies must taste REAL good to dogs....
