Hi, there, I can at least see a few today. Boy has it been a busy week! Speaking of your flies, a tiny bee somehow got into my house and stung my leg as I sat here at the computer today. OUCH

The nerve - some guests are so rude.

Yuck bluebottles are gross....Seren

I am with you on that one, insects should stay in their own little world far from humans.

Hate blackflies, you don't know where they've been, give me spiders anytime.

Yuk - you mean like possibly checking out roadkill. I'm going out to buy more fly swatters tomorrow.

A chilling read for fly-haters. Well penned.

Thanks, for your lovely visit and for putting my little poem right up there alongside with Hitchcock's The Birds. A new classic. LOL

Hope it holds, good one Line...
