To love hoovering up fruit flies

We have a glut of apples this year and I am not quite keeping up with all the apples coming into the kitchen. With the apples are coming tiny fruit flies - annoying little buggers. But, give me the Dyson and I feel like a Jedi knight as I suck the little things up - mid-air is especially rewarding!

Fun but they'll only fly back out of the Hoover again (when you're not looking) get some of that super-sticky fly paper, not many things are as satisfying as counting up the accumulated stuck flies everyday.

I am hoping that after swirling around in the vacuum they are dead!

I have spent the last 15 mins trying to get an effing bluebottle in the sitting room, but it is too bloody fast!
