i should clarify something. i am generally very bug-positive. i don’t freak out around bees and wasps (mostly, but for that i blame the hornet that stung my right buttcheek when i was 15 and i had to sit in the car for 3 hours with a melting ice pack on the seat), and i‘m the friend (or gf, if i‘m to be so lucky) who will catch a spider in a cup and put it outside.
however, the ones that thrive in the house? die. i want all of them dead. i came across this trick on pinterest forever ago, and my god is it satisfying. just spray the fly with windex as it wizzes by, and that little fucker will be on its last gasps in seconds. just be careful around open plates of food!
