Thunderflies

The bloody things seem to be out in full force here today. If you go out wearing a white shirt for a few minutes, you'll come back in wearing a black one.

Anyone else suffering these beasties this summer? Any tips for getting rid of them? I'm seriously considering fire at the moment.

Oh, they will. I fully expect to be chasing the things around with my mouse pointer for the next couple of months.

Funny you mention this. I hadn't noticed any until today, theres lots now. I keep finding them on my skin. I had to shoo a few off my monitor too, I know what their game plan is!

Had them about a week ago and they're back today. Annoying as hell because they get everywhere plus there is no sure fire way of stopping them unless it cools down.
