If you live in an area where deer flies are a pesky problem, read
this: http://ufinsect.ifas.ufl.edu/deerfly_trap.htm

If you've never heard of, been bitten by, or seen a deer fly,
read it and chuckle.

A "human" trap (the article primarily describes them for use on
slow-moving vehicles on farms (but a golf cart would work at
home!)) can be made as described on the web page (but that looks
silly! If that bothers you.) A Construction hard hat, painted
blue and spread with tanglefoot or, according to a letter in
FloridaAgriculture Magazine, the engine additive STP, reportedly
does well for people working in their yards, etc. (FINALLY --
something STP really works on!)

Anyway, read and take heed -- or laugh.

(We have a blue pickup truck -- hmmm. ;-)
