How to Catch Flies the Green(tea) Way

With two punks in the house and all of their friends, we really should have considered putting in a revolving door. I am constantly saying "shut the door, shut the door, shut the door". Flies around here must be drugged with all the skeeter spray the city uses so they see my door open and they fly right on in. Sooki is great at handling flies but as she gets older she really does not stalk them like she use to.

I have a remedy. A natural remedy that is super easy. First you brew up your fav green tea or whatever tea you really enjoy. I am pretty sure it has to be tea that you like too. Sugar the tea to your liking and set off to do whatever tasks in the house you have. Make sure that you come back and drink your tea often. At some point, the flies will see that you like your tea. They will smarten up and do a couple fly bys and then dive head flipping first into your tea when you are not looking . Now you have caught your fly. Hooray!

Just remember to look into your glass before each sip. Nothing like live fly+tea in your mouth to ruin your glass of tea.

Gotta go scrub my mouth free of fly germs again.
