i am not big on killing things.  but, when i used a food bank a couple years ago, they only provided foods surrounded with fruit flies.

i could not have that.

so, i made the ten fingers of death.  took the inner cardboard from ten toilet paper rolls.  put duct tape on them, albeit backwards, so the sticky side was on the outside.

i just stood in the little group of fire flies for a few minutes and the ten fingers of death got covered in minutes.  i tossed it in outside garbage.

i looked up ehow and gnats.  usually it is a plant.  but i saw one entry about avoiding gnat bites.  they bite?

if u get desperate, u can kill a gnat or such with a spray gun of water and small part bleach.

if its fruit flies, may i suggest the ten fingers of death?

(man, google may have a field day with this post of mine.)

I like the 10 fingers of death idea. And yes, they definitely bite if they're gnats or no-see'ems.

i remember when i lived upstate, we had a month of alleged no-see-ums.

wth? i surely could see them just fine.

i get itchy just thinking of bugs. (i like one Bug. Miss Cricket.)

Ha, thanks Char. Most folks don't care much for us noisy crickets LOL.

I know this won't really help the Gnat problem at your job since I'm sure there's no smoking inside, but when I'd go out fishing, the little buggers use to buzz around my face. I hated that and many a time they would chase me inside. But, I found that keeping a lit cig in my mouth kept them away. One problem tho is that I became a chain smoker while fishing.
Those are the most aggravating little suckers. I hope you find an answer to the problem before they drive you crazy.

I am opening a new martial arts studio:

THE TEN FINGERS OF DEATH

specializing in no seeums Ninja.

Funny Popster.

Thanks Charon for the tips.

Cricket good story

The bug man came by yesterday afternoon. He was looking at them real close with a flash light ...What for?
Well he said he was trying to see if they had red eyes.
They dont.
He is coming back soon to treat the place.

It was recently remodeled. He said these are near dampness.

These are soquick that I am not sure the ten fingers of death would work....lol

The thinking here is correct.....but I am afraid that the numbers are wrong.

Anger lingers much longer than joy!!!!

Sorry to say, but one loses many, many more minutes of happiness than 60 seconds...

icky pooh pete. only the Ac SYSTEM or some duct system could have been bringing lady bugs in, fire.

i remember those giant headbands.

linville, why was he checking if they had red eyes? to see if they were demonic? he did not treat the problem yet? what, he has to bring in a catholic priest for an excorism type thing?

very funny pops. Lots would join a ten fingers of death karate class until they learned what it meant.

[Linville]

The exterminator said if they were the type that had red eyes they would be harder to treat....he had been to class on bugs, grins, and he was talking about various types and the difficulties to rid them....I wont say what their neck name is but it was those kind not the red eyed kind.
