Speaking of bugs, I’ve been meaning to ask. Have you had more flies than usual this spring? They have been driving us nuts.

Hubby even has a stinky fly “trap” hanging on a tree, and it’s had to be replaced already because it was so full. I think they’ve taken the place of skeeters this year. LOL! I guess the good part is that they don’t bite or make me itch. :)

So far I haven’t seen ANY flies yet. We were inundated with mosquito hawks for a few weeks though. I’ve never seen so many of them. They drove the cats crazy because every window had several of them hanging on the screens and the cats kept trying to get at them, dirtying the window panes. There was no point in cleaning the windows until that mess was over with.

If they land on you long enough, flies do bite and it hurts. Fortunately, they don’t usually to land on us long enough to bite.
