There's a lovely local farmer who sprays his fields with human poo annually. Not only is the stench vomit inducing but there's always an infestation of flies. How people put up with this I don't know?

Dp has been onto the council this morning to complain (we only moved into dp's house recently) He's never been around enough to notice it before.
So, the flies were horrendous. I've tried everything to kill them, even fly papers which only got a few. I was sat on the loo and picked up Mr Muscle and squirted one of the buggers Grin Result!! So now I'm going round like some mad hunter zapping them all. It's good in that I just get a paper towel and wipe up the fly. Sounds cruel I suppose but it's better than those awful fly papers, they suffer for ages on them.

Funny that we used to spread the human poo pellets around farmers fields but there were no flies (S wales). I dont think its that as these pellets have been treated and extremely safe and dont attract flies. Its all been approved by Defra so the council wont be interested especially complaining about flies in the countryside nor can you complain about any spreading of muck or anyother farm practices.

Living in the countryside - the joys of flies the papers are the best! The industrial electric fly zappers are good. Sticky flowers on the windows help.

Those little creatures in the field attract the bluebottles, poo, maggots etc.
Watch out next for the fly poo (black spots on everything white).

Enjoy!

I've lived right next to farmers fields all my life and believe me have never smelt anything like it. Also my first boyfriend was a dairy farmer so spent many a weekend on the farm. I don't think he's using pellets. Everyone round here complains about him (whoever he is?)

Maybe it isn't human poo? Whatever it is it smells like the bowels of hell! I've resorted to anti bac spray now and it's working well Smile
