Default re: Flies

When I saw the title of this thread I thought to myself "Oh god no, here we go again. If it's not boobs it's something else."

Thankfully we're talking about an entirely different kind of fly, so I shall allow this discussion to proceed unmolested.

Anyway, we don't get flies. We get ants. Honed, bitter, hardened city ants that seem to have learnt how to swarm. Our kitchen bench crumbs have never before faced such a dire threat. I swear I saw one in the road getting run over by cars. It'd just stop for the wheel to hit it then get up and keep going. Some kind of 'Gordon Freeman Ant' if you ask me.
