The world's most annoying fly will not leave me alone.
It is buzzing my face, my feet, my computer. Appears to have fallen madly in love with me. Grrr.

12. See, that's a problem.
I can't smash bugs, that grosses me out. I just try to reason with bugs.

2. The bugs are terrible this year.

I'm in PA and it has been a hot, humid summer. We can't go outside without battling swarms of gnats, blood-thirsty mosquitoes and huge
pesky flies.

But on the bright side, I have never seen so many butterflies! :)

3. Get a rolled up newspaper or an old-fashioned fly swatter.
You will probably never see it again. It's either that or you may learn to love it back.

4. spritz in its direction with a little windex or febreeze
that will disorient the critter, perhaps

I left for a few hours and my fly friend appears to be gone. No ass kicking needed.


And yes, I am a fucking wuss. :-)

The honey is a far better option than the alternative.

10. Well, it is the World's Most Annoying Fly.
He's merely living up to his title. He has a reputation to uphold. ;)

14. Is it just me or are the flies getting squirrelly early this year?
Usually I don't see this until September...
