The Iowa flies dont want to migrate to Denver. I thought if I opened the windows while parked at the receiver I could shoo them out. Well.. my be they need passports or something cause the damn things are going in and out of the windows now. I know they are the same flies cause of their size and wings

So I'm still being annoyed by flies and trying to figure out how to blindside into this dock. Smh

You might try cranking your AC to the max. The cold should make them somewhat lethargic and then you can smoosh 'em. LOL

OOS:

When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.

Find a dumpster and park next to it for a while?

I'd like to have one of those guns that shoots salt to kill flies.

Here's two ways to clean up:

Active method: Use your 12v truck vacuum, wave it at the flies till they get sucked inside.

Passive method: Inverted soda bottle: 47bb66575f20be064ee3f404e70a12a3.jpg

You can use apple cider vinegar plus a few drops of dish soap as bait in the bottom. Only half an inch or so.

That's pretty cool. I wonder if I could still get my 5 cent deposit back once it's full?

Spend 10$ and purchase two Prey Mantis hatchlings from the nearest retail store. Let nature take its course, they'll be gone in no time.
