WHERE do they come from and HOW do they know the MINUTE you open the fridge to prepare food?!?
FLIES💥⚡🪰🪰🪰
These super pests have the ability to SNIFF out a rotting carcass from 6 km away! Literally, their entire body is like some military grade sensor device designed to pinpoint potential baby barracks; find a ready source of food for the babas (maggots!) and a fly's entire purpose and meaning for their entire 30 day existance is met!
🐹If Fido is a bit slow to chow down..? Flies will lay eggs in his nosh.
🩹Have a festering open wound? Flies will lay eggs in your flesh.
🧙‍♀️🧙‍♂️In-laws a bit late for lunch? Flies will lay eggs in the beef roast!

FLYSWATTING can be an energetic and challenging way of dealing with the problem. Flies see in slow motion - 4 times slower than us - so that Serena Williams backhand of yours is hardly the power play you think it should be.

Certain herbal plants are supposed to keep them out of the kitchen: basil, cloves, mint, lavender, citronella, lemongrass and apple cider vinegar for example.

WE find an electronic zapper to be a worthwhile and cost effective form of fly control. Install one in your commercial kitchen, mount one near your favorite eating area. The flies are attracted to the light and efficiently zapped to death without you having to lift a finger.

CLEANLINESS is always the best form of prevention: Jik bleach down your drains, regular bin washes with vinegar and Jik and of course wipe down counter surfaces before and after meal prep.

Interesting? The average female house fly can lay 75 - 150 eggs in a batch and can produce 5 or 6 batches in her short, 15 - 30 day lifespan.

Flies do NOT handle the cold well. Their muscles need a warm, ambient environment to function which is why the roll over comatosed if caught in your fridge!

It’s estimated that these moths can detect the scent of female pheromones in the air at a ratio of just a few hundred molecules among 25 quintillion (25,000,000,000,000,000,000) other molecules in a single cubic centimeter of air! This incredible ability helps them locate a mate over impressive distances, showcasing just how finely tuned nature can be. Nature’s wonders never cease to amaze!

The world's deadliest animals, in terms of annual human fatalities, are not those we typically associate with fear, like lions or snakes. In fact, mosquitoes claim the top spot, responsible for approximately one million deaths each year. This far surpasses the 100,000 deaths attributed to snakes and the mere 250 caused by lions. Surprisingly, dogs rank third among the most lethal creatures to humans, causing about 30,000 deaths annually. Most of these fatalities are linked to rabies, transmitted through dog bites.

Christmas beetle is a name commonly applied to the

Christmas beetle is a name commonly applied to the Australian beetle genus Anoplognathus. They are actually native to South Africa too. They are known as Christmas beetles because they are abundant in both urban and rural areas close to Christmas.
Although not harmful to humans, these nocturnal bugs can cause havoc on your Mum's rose bushes - or other plants.

Christmas beetles can be confused with the Argentinian Scarab which looks similar, but without the irridescent sheen of the Christmas beetle. There is some concern that the number of Christmas beetles may have fallen.

Biopesticides are biological substances or organis

Biopesticides are biological substances or organisms that are used to kill, damage, or repel pests. They can be derived from a variety of natural materials, including:
plants, bacteria, fungi, nematodes, animals, and certain minerals.
Some examples of biopesticides include:
canola oil, baking soda, neem oil, citronella oil, iron phosphate, methoprene, capsaicin, and copper sulfate.
Biopesticides can be categorized into four types:
1. Products based on pheromones and other semiochemicals
2. Products containing microbes, such as bacteria, fungi, protozoa, viruses, or viroids
3. Products based on plant extracts
4. Other novel alternative products
Biopesticides have several advantages over synthetic pesticides. They are less risky to human health and are not associated with the release of greenhouse gases. They are "non-persistent" in the environment, which means they offer less exposure and potentially less harm. They are compatible with other biological control agents, such as predatory mites and lady beetles.

However, biopesticides do have some drawbacks:
They are not effective in environmental extremes or under high disease pressure
They are best used when pest pressure is low or as a preventative.
They are not considered a cure for plant disease.
