Flypaper

I got this fancy-shmancy flypaper (well, as fancy as flypaper gets) that had bright colors that were supposed to attract the flies and not look so hideous. I put it in a safe, out-of-the-way corner and it attracted no flies. I put it on the other side of the sink and it attracted the dishtowel. I put it over by the door and stuck myself to it several times.

When I came up from switching the laundry and discovered a distraught D1 with her entire forearm stuck to it, I just took the whole thing down and threw it away. It still didn't have any flies on it. Back to flyswatters.

Mom always tried to hang the flypaper in inconspicuous places, but . . . the only place it works is directly over the kitchen table. lol.
