I think I had one lay eggs in my house. A few weeks ago, on a day when I hardly opened a door for more than a few seconds I suddenly found at least 100 horseflies in my house. I was sucking them up with a hand vac and releasing them outside, and every few hours I’d go suck up about 30 more — and every single day after that I found at least 30 or so more for at least a week. I’m still seeing 1-2 per day, but at least that’s manageable. Hopefully these last stragglers are the last that I’ll have. It’s nuts!

releasing horse flies.

Horse flies are the bitey kind, so release?! ... well, no polite words here.

(House flies are typically just... flies)

Also, you probably have a dead mouse or some such, in a crawl space. Thus maggots, thus flies.

Oops. Autocorrupt got me. Houseflies.
Proof that AI is sentient, and malign. The more horseflies, the more societal unrest.
