Can't hardly get out the door before they start zooming. I don't know how they can find the middle of your back were I can't reach but then fly right into the side of the house. Thunk. Stupid things.:banghead:banghead:banghead

They were bad around my shop the last two years. I cant find a good way to get rid of them. From what I've read, the females are the ones that bite. They need the protein from blood to help develope their eggs. Once they lay the eggs, they arent a problem
The biting flys are bad here when on the lake!!! Thermocell don't even help them none.
Damn horse flys about ate me alive last weekend when working on deer plots and stands. Suckers bite hard :banghead
Do you need me to tell ya what the real issue is? :RoflQuote:

dang horse flies! a buddy, a 12 pack and a couple of tennis rackets can make for entertaining afternoon when there is nothing better to do!
I got to where I was pretty good at swat'n 'em off my horse's rear while riding, but I never have tried whacking one off a live person ... might be fun!
Make a cows life miserable too. I'm spraying a permethrin mix on them and it only helps a short period, if at all.
I spray my cows too they look like they have gotten shot by shot gun so many blood spots. I use permethrin poor on stuff but I put it in a pump up sprayer when I feed while they are eating I soak them.
Poor animals they can't get inside in the air to get away from them. Lol. I swear they must set in the trees watching the door for me to come out. I step out on the porch and here they are. Dad always and a wire stretched between a couple of,trees. He wrapped burlap around it and then soaked it in bug stuff for the cows. They learn to walk under it real quick to get the stuff on there backs.
