...the flying daddy long legs. Can't abide the things and there is one lurking in our bedroom somewhere so I have armed myself with a can of deodorant and a lighter, just waiting for the little bugger to show himself.

Get out there with a self made flame thrower, they toast quite nicely and smell of bacon.
 
mmm im gonna have a slice of that! gonna do some frying tonight! :wink:
 
Mozzis are the problem up where I come from - seems to be millions
and all they do is sleep then when you do, they drink your blood :twisted:

Easy to squash though - house looks a bit of a mess though with all the
dead, squashed mozzis everywhere - almost designerish :shock:

I have one and it's great fun, the little fly bug things go pop and bang! Sounds kinda like supercharged rice crispies :lol: :p
 
Last year i had a plague of them in my garden. :x
This is the time of year they lay there eggs in your grass and then they hatch and the lave eats the roots of the grass and kill it. So if you got big brown patches of grass thats why. This is the time to spray the grass it kills the eggs. I find out tomorrow the best stuff to use is Provado Lawn Grub Killer. :lol: But untill then keep toasting the little buggers :lol:
They also called leatherjackets :roll:

I say it's survival of the fittest and I have flame, fuel and propellant.
 
catch them and pull their legs off, this kept me amused for ages when i was a kid.

...for summer fun, when a bee is getting pollen from a rose, sneak up on it and hit it with a hammer. Ah happy days :D
