Recently I noticed my dogs chasing after flies, and I couldn't figure out where they were coming from. Yesterday, I walked into the room where the pigs' cage is, and I noticed that the flies are hanging out there. I clean the cage regularly, with regular spot cleanings daily and full cleanings twice a week. The cage is never really that dirty, but I figured that well, they are flies so maybe they're coming after the poop. But no, they're out for the veggies. I always take out the leftover greens because they don't always eat it all. Apparently the three flies figured out that this room is where the goods are, and I can't get rid of them because they just won't die! What can I do to get these flies away?? I don't want flies in my house or around my piggies!

Try leaving a piece of fruit out on a table somewhere near the pig cage (but not too close). Wait for the flies to land and then spray them with Windex.

P.S. I think the sticky tape idea is better but if you don't have any, my low budget plan should work.

Fly hunting

We've been on assulting flies for a few days now. It seems like the more we kill, the more we find alive! I even attacked one with air freshener today because it was the closest thing to me, and I'm not sure, but I think the fly laughed at me. We'll see who gets the last laugh when the pest-guy comes on Tuesday. Bwahahaha!
