If so what did you do to rid yourself of them?

In Georgia when a Redneck is bothered by DP Gnats around their eyes they cut a hole in the seat of their Jeans and the flies leave the eyes alone. :^}

My dog gets windy when she eats a banana. She also eats flies when she can catch them. Does this count?

You may have drain flies. damn things live to fly up noses.

Look up www.doyouownpestcontrol.com and get a drain fly kit.

Empty all of your potted plants and resoil. Good luck!

You may think that photo of Omuslim is photoshopped, but it is not.
Can you imagine just letting a fly sit on your face????

The best way to keep them out of your face is to cut a hole in the seat of your pants.

I live in the Florida Panhandle and don’t think I have seen a fly all Summer tho I probably would not remember if I did.

It does seem like the gnats are worse than usual but they are always a problem.

When I lived in Western Kansas, there were virtually no insects except flies but the flies were so bad they made up for the lack of other insects.

Great Photo....Satan is a fly and excrement magnet—anything to defile and debase human beings because of their likeness to God......oh yes-—and sodomy pusher—the ultimate dehumanizing act. Forcing into law and the military, the most evil behavior and forcing Christians to take “Pride” in such debasing, evil acts. These “acts or “rights” were what made debasing and humiliating the Jews possible, since the Nazis and Hitler were occultist homosexuals habituated in treating humans in debasing ways. (Pink Swastika).

The REAL way to fundamentally destroy a once Christian Nation and remove the Constitutional God-Given Rights and replace it with Barney Frank Rights!!! Way to go, zero. You are proving how evil and disgusting and Marxist you are every day you open your mouth. You are devoid of morality.

Put some sticky board on the wall where the light shines.

If they are inside, leave a wine bottle out with a sip of win left in it. They will fly in and can’t fly out and will drown. Or you can leave a small bowl of vinegar out with a couple drops of soap in it and they will be drawn to the vinegar.

Outside, an old horse barn trick. Fill a ziploc bag about 3/4 full of water and tack or nail it to the doorway nearest to where you hang out the most. Don’t know why, but it repels flies.

Good luck!

I had them breeding among my house plants. Had to use pyrethrin spray (twice) to get them all. I think they came in on a pineapple I bought at the store.

I am having a problem with fruit flies as well as my sister 30 miles across town.

Your sister travels 30 miles just to give you problems?

I have them and thought they were fruit flies. Maybe they are, but they don’t always hang around food. The last time this happened, I had a plant on the kitchen windowsill whose soil never dried out and that’s where they were hatching.

where can I get that GIF?

Just right click on it, pick save as...
And put it in any folder you choose.

Careful, though.
They breed!
