Official Flood Flies Day!!

Munchkin.FuryThere are millions of them and I am not exaggerating.  They are swarming and surrounding our house and getting into every nook and cranny to invade us.  This is the biggest Flood Flies day we have seen and we have been here every year for the last 10 years.

They keep on coming:

More Flood Flies.
More Flood Flies.

As I write, they are crawling all over us, down the shirts and down the trousers.  Ugghh…I dislike (using a very light term) that creepy crawly feeling.  There are masses collecting around all the lights, flying amock and dropping their wings.

I am worried about the mess of wings in the morning.

All Gnome is worried about is the mass of protein that he did not catch this time to eat.

Gnome.Shiny.GlassesWhat a funny world we live in…each to his own worry!

This is the nuptial flight of the termites which like to eat wood and cellulose.  I take back my words, in a previous post, when I said that this day only occurred in May.  It can occur in June too!  Beware of termites if you live in a wooden house (like we do); they can literally eat you out of house and home.

Ok…ready to go to bed!!
