Guest guest Posted September 3, 2002 Report Share Posted September 3, 2002 Yo, Butch! Thanks for the skeeter info, interesting! Not nearly as serious, but every bit as annoying here, are flies. Any ideas of what'd work (besides a good, deep, freeze!) to keep them away? So far the only sure thing is a flyswatter. Somehow the stinkin' things know the minute you get one out!

Guest guest Posted September 3, 2002 Report Share Posted September 3, 2002 Thanks for that, I have heard about the bags of water - and I have heard that it works, plus a local restaurant used to do that here, and it did help. I was wondering about something to use as a body spray, like when you're outside, though. I don't really like using citronella on the skin, but I've heard that works to help keep flies away from horses. Maybe just use it to spray your clothing?

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2002 Report Share Posted September 4, 2002 I saw this at several restaurants in southern New Mexico: Hang a baggie full of water from the ceiling in front of your doors/windows (assuming the problem is in your house). I screwed a small hook in my ceiling and wrapped a rubber band around a baggie full of water -- worked for me. I don't have any explanations ... --k - " vikingmama1978 " <Lbocke61 Tuesday, September 03, 2002 3:08 PM Re: In Mosquito War........... > Yo, Butch! > > Thanks for the skeeter info, interesting! > > Not nearly as serious, but every bit as annoying here, are flies. > Any ideas of what'd work (besides a good, deep, freeze!) to keep them > away?
