Also, that book is a nice metaphor for America’s response to 9/11. And by nice I mean depressing.

This makes me think of Six Feet Under when Lili Taylor tried to talk the ants into leaving her kitchen.

J: I do know how to make traps, but my flies, unfortunately, don’t fly into them. We seem to have bred super-intelligent flies that know to avoid jars with cider vinegar and wine in them.

Arun: Hee! That’s adorable. :)

We used to have fun with the vaccuum cleaner. We used the wand attachment and pretended we were using a light saber to catch the fruit flies. It does actually reduce their quantities if you do it regularly. And prentending it’s a light saber helps make it fun.

Or maybe that’s a boy thing.

We have them too.

I wonder if there are any public housing charities specificallly for people who destroyed their homes in fruitfly-infestation-removal accidents.
