A Nemesis Defeated

Having a large piece of land in the great state of Maine, we are plagued every summer with hordes of voracious deerflies and horseflies. It always made outdoor work a real pain, literally.

Out of desperation, I tried a product called TRED-NOT, a sticky patch that you affix to the back of your hat.

Here is the result of a short test walking out to our first field and back - about a 10 minute walk.

If you are pestered with biting flies, I highly recommend these inexpensive patches. I found them online at http://www.biconet.com/traps/deerflyPatch.html
