Your farm supply should have some fly bait. Most stink like !@##, but work. Here in the south if you live anywhere close to a damn chicken house, you'll get flys. Place a small amount in jar lid on pic-nik table and watch their aerobatics before they crash. They go nuts for a second or 2. Don't tell peta please.

Aren't the flies the reason you Aussies have those absurd flat-brimmed hats with the corks hanging from strings tied around the rim? Or is that just some stereotype perpetrated by Monty Python?

yeah the oldies wear them stupid hats,, i would rather eat a few flies though!

this morning while getting into my car for work.. SIX flies got in the car with me... and thats nothing compared to how many are floating around. its just insane.

Ive tried the water bag thing... doesnt seem to be working on the flies.. the Nats have gone away though.

If they're getting in the car with you, maybe you should get one of those hats.
