Living in a private house has its pros and cons, but I never thought I’d face such a problem, especially in a cottage village!

In the countryside, where livestock and pets create a constant stream of manure, expecting no flies is unrealistic. But in a cottage village!

Lately, we’ve had a real invasion of flies. The warming and heat did their job — the buzzing army multiplied to incredible numbers.

Moreover, many people in cottage villages have started keeping livestock. There’s a neighbor with turkeys, another with chickens, and across the diagonal — chickens, turkeys, geese, and even a few goats. Not to mention the equestrian school across the street, which adds horse manure to the mix.
