I feel like Pigpen from Peanuts

Pigpen is the cartoon character from Peanuts who is always dirty and who has flies around him. That's what I feel like these days. There are flies inside the main house, inside the women's house, inside the yurts, and obviously outside. They are black flies but luckily they aren't biting flies. Still they fly around and like dive bomb me (and others) throughout the day. It was starting to make me feel paranoid--like I was dirty or something. This is despite the fact that I shower every morning. It is an issue for everyone though so I know it isn't something that I'm doing wrong. Still it is annoying.

There should be a way to get rid of them

We get plenty of flies here in the country areas. I see very few where we are now but every opening has screens. I don't see many outside either.

I was just telling another Mylotter she needed a Zevo. The blue light they have really attracts those flies and kills them quickly. It’s almost mess free.
