Gnats, Anyone?

[so lucky]

I don't think we have your kind of gnats out here in OR. We do have those pesky flies that simply hover and swirl in a room/breezeway. One of my dogs leaps and snaps at them. And of course, the fruit flies are starting back up...

We call those little bee-looking things "jar flies". I have no idea why.

this is funny Bay! i use vanilla infused vaseline as a lip balm. nothing else i've tried to use i like and many of the normal commerical chap sticks will get reactions from my skin so i've gone to this as my home remedy. the main thing for me and chapped lips is just to make sure i'm drinking enough water. that works the best. but once in a while i'll get a combination of wind and sun that will set them off.

I bet gnats don't bother your lips, do they?
