Yep big mistake. My house stinks, I am glowing like a pig but at least none of my muscles ache!

I hate flies and there were loads of them!

Did it work?

Not very well. I am sure the buggers were laughing at me!!!

I hate them too! Ugh. I have sprayed them with deodorant and air freshener when the raid has ran out. At least they eventually died smelling of fresh linen spray Grin

The next person they land on is in for a surprise Grin

You did what?

At least their muscles will be ache free Grin

Did you rub them with it?

Hairspray works on mosquitoes and midges. (I was a teenager with limited resources and needed to be creative).

Get an electronic zapper with a blue light. They buzz satisfyingly every time they kill a fly.

I had to look up if they did a spray, as I was very confused and thought that you’d put cream on them. Grin

Are you sure they're dead, they could just be completely chilled Grin

I just put water and washing up liquid in a spray bottle and sprayed them with that. After they'd been stunned, I hit them with whatever was to hand and killed them.
