Thread: So mom was cookin something.

The pot roast was smoking and slightly burnt, so I open the back door turn off the oven, 15 minutes goes by, mother is gone and door is swarming with flies. I wish I had some sort of laser weapon mounted on the ceiling to lock on the flies and shoot them.
The flies must have smelled the delicious pot roast in our oven.
but I don't have a fancy household fly killing laser system.
So..

Found this doing a google search involving "lasers shoot bugs"

Exactly what I envisioned!

Er, it might work over there in the colonies (I'm not sure what sort of bugs you people invented when you abandoned a proper country) but here we have ones that can fly over the top of fences and the like.

On the other hand: if your mother's cooking is anything like my mother's then the solution is simple - get a take out, prevent her cooking altogether.

Were the flies trying to come in or get out?

lol

I just put a few of these around the house and they take care of most insects that do get inside. They are cheap and work for water only .

Do they grow big enough to take care of my mother?
