I don’t know too many people who don’t think flies are annoying. I think I have a pretty standard opinion of them…they’re stupid. My wife though, absolutely hates them. We were sitting in a restaurant recently and she went so far as to say that she likes them even less than popping (knuckles…which is unfortunately a habit of mine), which was saying something.
Then I ran into this video all about flies. Apparently, they are the “Ferrari’s of the insect world.” Who knew? There were some cool super slow motion shots but what I especially appreciated were the tips they gave for swatting flies:
- Resist in-flight attacks
- Sneak up slowly before the final flick
- Approach from behind
- Use a swatter than blends in with the background
- Aim your swat beyond the insect
Now I can really be the man of the house and conquer those pesky little guys. You’re going down flies.
