We had a fly buzzing around the house tonight. It trapped itself between the open window and the flyscreen so I sprayed it and shut the window. Went back 2 min later to find it buzzing around legs up on the windowsill and tiny maggots on the glass ![]()
I moved to WA 3 weeks ago , and got a flat about 400 k's out of Pertth, I swallowed 4 flies changing the tyre, but you could tell these were bush flies, they were slow as f*ck, but Im sure thats where flies were invented there were thousands of them.
I live in a rather cold place on Earth, and have no dogs and a very clean place (thanks to missus).
Yet you leave some fruit like a pineapple on the counter in the midst of the winter, which is fly-free, and 10 minutes later a million of those little black things circling madly said fruit.
No idea where the bitches come from...
Does It matter, just kill both of them!!
If your names 'NOAH' it would be both,
For everyone else not squeemish, all ![]()
So we get rid of the flies, and swap for a dung beetle explosion,
Probably unstoppable like the cane toads.........
Sounds like a fair trade,
except the flies only breed in s***, The dung beetles roll it up, and take it home (Chortle)
In Tim Flannery's book The Explorers, he has a report from some early European travelers to north west WA and they comment that the Aboriginals had developed a permanent squint and kept their lips quenched, due to the sheer numbers of flies.. Apparently they were a pretty miserable lot.
Hmmmm......... You talking about the abo's or the flies ?
