Horsefly heaven...

Its happened, we have the most fabulous weather here at the moment (I am enjoying it now, but will start to get twitchy about running out of water if it goes on for more than another week or so...perverse I know!), and the horseflies have arrived.

Poor Felix was absolutely mobbed by them last night and the little blighters have obviously hatched out in huge numbers - the more you kill the more there seem to be, and to add insult to injury they've added humans to their "to eat" list already...

As always, I've been taken by surprise, even though I know this happens every June, and so am off to search the UKNHCP forum for the most effective horsefly repellent, and then stocking up in large quantities...
