Relentlessly Attacked by German House Flies
I almost lost my mind today. I have had a couple of house flies that have been acting sort of not like house flies at all. More like Horse Flies. I’d be sitting there quietly at my computer, and they would come right up to my face and buzz all around my head. Swat swat….I kept missing them. Then he would go away for a few minutes, then sneak up behind me and buzz my ear (actually touching it) GOD is there anything more annoying? bzzzzzt bzzztt. It send chills up my spine thinking aobut it.
After about 3 hours of me jumping up with my paper trying to kill the little bastard, my dogs pretty much thought I was out of my mind. It would be all quiet, dogs sleeping at my side, when I would get kamikaze bombed in the ear again. I would yell out “GODDAMNED FLIES” Then the dog would jump up and almost have a heart attack and look at me like I was out of my mind. I finally gave up and decided to go to bed. On the way up the stairs, the same awful fly attacked my ear again. At that point I had to laugh. I have honestly never seen anything like this…. I’ve never been attacked by house flies. I am wondering if it is only the flies in Germany…….or if they got into something, or if they were just really hungry….

I had two in my office last week. I opened the window…they wouldn’t leave. I swatted at them and missed…. They drove me and my clients crazy. Now they are nowhere to be found…R.I.P.???

Yes it is truly amazing. We have had a STEALTH FLY zooming around our bedroom for 3 weeks now . We think its losing altitude because our beautiful Persian Cat takes stationary positions and swivels his head from left to right as though he sees something moving.
This stealth fly loves to buzz inside your ear, and usually waits till you are trying to go to sleep.
Maybe the cat got the fly at last because two nights ago our cat suddenly started making these howling noises like he was destroying something he’d caught and we have not been bothered since.
