You catch more flies with tanglefoot
Deer Flies usually drive me nuts this time of year. The 2005 seasons seems to be a bit more hellish then usual for some reason. It has been really hot, dry, and muggy (i know that sounds wrong) for the last 2 months and I think they are getting testy. After getting chased out of the woods a number of times we decided to poke around on the web and find out more information ont he pesky critters. Somewhere on the first google returns I saw this little nugget and had to try it.
Off to the hardware store I went, picked up 2 flower pots, a bucket of tangle foot, and some misc mounting hardware for ~ $20. After waiting for the paint to dry, and wresting with some twist ties and the bottom pop off piece of the flower pot, i managed to mount it to the small rider.
I think the results speak for themselves.
