BATON ROUGE, La. — It's that time of year again in Louisiana, when flies that bite and crawl into people's bodies are swarming around.
Officials with the East Baton Rouge Parish’s Mosquito Abatement and Rodent Control Department said residents should expect black flies to be around until the weather becomes warmer.
Department officials said the flies will try to crawl into people’s ears, noses and eyes, and spraying insecticide is ineffective. They are also known as "buffalo gnats" and "turkey gnats."
"Black flies are terrible right now in many areas," officials said on Facebook. The female flies tend to bite people during the late morning hours, officials said.

Let another form life I wish would go extinct already. There has got to be an economically viable way to exterminate those things globally.

I swallowed a bug on a bike ride the other day. Who's at fault in this situation?

So true. I bought the cheap vanilla extract and put it in a spray bottle. When I go outside I spray my neck and head.
I hang those vanilla scented pine trees around the chicken pen.
