Pet peeves

Pet peeves: For those who truly know me, you understand my intense hatred for flies. Everyone dislikes them, but I loathe them. Previously, I stashed cans of Raid in every corner of my home. However, friends recently gifted me fantastic fly-fighting tools, transforming my battle against these pests. First, I now wield a high-powered electric fly swatter. This device zaps flies instantly with a satisfying spark. Next, I installed sticky traps near windows and doors. These traps snag flies effectively, keeping my space cleaner.  Additionally, I use a natural repellent spray made from essential oils. It smells pleasant and drives flies away without harsh chemicals. Moreover, I added a sleek fly trap disguised as a stylish lantern. It lures and captures flies discreetly, blending into my decor. Finally, I maintain a strict cleaning routine to eliminate food scraps. This habit reduces fly attractants significantly. Together, these tools empower me to reclaim my home. No longer do flies torment me daily. Instead, I confidently enjoy a fly-free environment!

Fly trap

My neighbor Dennis got me the Rescue Fly Trap. This is amazing, fly’s line up to enter (and get trapped).

Bug salt gun

My cousin got me the Bug a Salt gun.  You fill it with salt and shoot the flies – and it works very well (but you have to have a good aim).

Horse fly spray

Then my brother-in-law told me about horse fly spray This can be sprayed on horses and kills flies.  It seems that this would be better/safer than Raid.

Well, that’s it for my fly-fighting remedies.

    That’s quite the fly fighting arsenal! If that gun is as fun as it looks it could make a fun unique gift for the holidays.
