By: DarienJ Date: June 14, 2024, 1:33 am --------------------------------------------------------- Bwhahaha……..well said Linda 😂 Do you have a lot of fruit out on display? If so I have heard if you place a cinnamon stick in the bowl it deters them. #Post#: 46084-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tiny black flies..... By: Moira Date: June 14, 2024, 3:34 am --------------------------------------------------------- Shut up Lady Linda .... these black flies are so tiny they could get through any window screens or even a net curtain !!!!!!!!!!!! I don't have fruit lying around .. don't eat it much and if I do it is kept in the fridge ! I seem to remember they were around this time last year and the year before in the Studio too !!!!!!!!!!!!! #Post#: 46095-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tiny black flies..... By: Linda Date: June 14, 2024, 2:20 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Ummmmm............those must be the tiniest bugs on earth then. Our screens don't allow ANYTHING into our house unless there is a tear in the screen. #Post#: 46103-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tiny black flies.....

By: Linda Date: June 15, 2024, 10:46 am --------------------------------------------------------- Oh yes, it's your winter so you don't have the door and windows open, that's GOOD. I suppose the bugs get in when you go in and out. Do they bite? #Post#: 46117-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tiny black flies..... By: Moira Date: June 16, 2024, 4:03 am --------------------------------------------------------- Well something bites me and I do blame mossies but it is a bit cold for them now ! #Post#: 46123-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tiny black flies..... By: Linda Date: June 16, 2024, 7:53 am --------------------------------------------------------- Here in the summer we have a tiny little bug that people call "no seeums", they are so small and they bite. I've never had a problem but then I'm not an outdoors person. I think they have a very short season though. #Post#: 46130-------------------------------------------------- Re: Tiny black flies..... By: Moira Date: June 17, 2024, 4:19 am --------------------------------------------------------- HAhahaha I love it .... NO Seeums :) Maybe that is what we have here BUT I can see them even if they are tiny ! ***************************************************** (DIR) Next Page
