Title: Christmas present idea for Narcissus lovers
Post by: Susan Band on November 14, 2008, 03:58:20 PM
Thought this might make a great present for those forumists bothered by Narcissus Fly. Hope this isn't classed as a advert, I don't have any conections but have tried a similar thing on house flies.

They work very well on flies, but don't swat them while they're sitting on your bare leg! :o

Or  if the fly lands  on the bald head of your brother in law [attach=1]

Susan  - I saw a clerk using this on fruit flies at a local Frootique. It was amazingly effective and gave quite a loud zap.

Zappa or Zapper- is there a prize Cliff, as long as it's not a pair of flares and wedgie shoes :-[

Ian and I  suffer from a dear friend who regards Zappa as the Ultimate Being........though I must say that I knew what the late FZ meant when he said " Beauty is a pair of shoes that makes you wanna die".......he had some soul/sole, for sure ::)

I have one of these machines, purchased at Canadian Tire when on a trip over there.  They are absolutely super for flies and/or wasps, and leave no messy marks on your window.  I'm for anything that saves on housework.....
