Tanglewood Fly Trappings

08 Jul

A* sporting some of her summer fashion line.  A hat with a BLUE disposable cup attached and covered with enough tanglefoot (used usually to to ring the bottom of trees to prevent ant infestation) to coat the cup.  Disgusting but effective.

Basically walk the perimeter of the property /area or wear all day.. Usually a couple of days of treatment clears up the deer flies for a couple of weeks

    Very lovely hat Angie, you will have to bring it to Marmora to see if you can sell them at the local flea market.
