In April, Ryan and I purchased our very first home. Actually a "town home" and we love it. Gone are the days of quarter saving for the Laundry mat, gone are the upstairs neighbor's with the late night skate board Tornourment, and gone are the mice who urinated all over the lower cabinets.
We now have all the wonderful appliances one could wish for. Including a garbage disposal.
Which is now called the "breeding grounds". Due to the amount of Drosophila Flies (fruit flies) that are congregating around it. But they don't stop there. These clever flies are hard to kill and tend to be all over the house. It just so happens that they love to fly in your face when you are reading.
Currently I am on the 5th book of the Narnia Series and have been reading like mad. Needless to say, I have managed to attract these flies where ever I am. Either I stink like bananas or other rotting fruit or they too, want to read the adventures of the talking animals, Aslan, and the Sons of Adam and Daughter of Eve. Unfortunately, I can't tell which. But, I have now managed to breath 4 fruit flies up my nose !!!! And so war begins.
I now plan to confront my enemy and destroy its stronghold at the "breeding grounds"

YUCK! I hate those diseased varmits! Let us know if the breeding grounds are succesfully vanquished!
i thought if i swatted a fruit fly away from me as hard as i could, it would definitely kill it, because if i swatted someone in the head it would be very painful, and in turn the fruit fly is sooo tiny- death would have to be a result! But to my amazment...it still flys as if nothing happened. They must not have any nerve endings.
These are crazy bugs, I am serious!
