Lord of the Flies...
It's now what? Week 7 of the garbage strike? My bins outside are full and I've even filled the lawn trimmings bin with trash.
So thanks to the piling trash, my house is now infested with fruit flies. At first it was just a few hovering around the garbage can. But now they seem to be absolutely everywhere and their numbers increase exponentially every day. I set up a strip of fly paper and within 5 minutes I had caught about twenty of them. Half an hour later and there's too many to count. The latest bag of garbage is now double bagged and outside on the back porch. My biggest worry is that the local wildlife will get into them and spread the trash all over the yard. That'd be perfect... not.
Sheesh, I need a better way of getting rid of these flies.
