So I have over 50 black fly bites, just on my legs.

[Reminiscence]

If anyone knows what a black fly is, that person knows the intensely itchy welt such an insect bite leaves. My gosh.

 

[FretsAflame]

For some reason I'm think you're exaggerating the number of bites, but yeah those fucking suck. Those sumbitches were all over the place in germany.

Are black flies those really big motherfuckers?

I just spent four days in the Dry River WILDERNESS, I am not exagerating.

On the contrary, they are quite small.

 

[Shpongled]

Horse flies are the big ones.

A trace of blood - post pics or you're lying!

 

[derek]

Midges, mother fuckers!

...well, seems you picked the appropriate username and probably
should have done something after the first few. Slap on some mud at least.

I did try to do something. DEET is pretty much useless against such creatures. And mud, yeah right, I'm not an Indian.


Shpongled: Well, I can try to get my camera working, but no lie, during the thunderstorms during the trip some intense water got into it and it was broken.

I think those are horse flies.

I feel for you ToB, I am going through a case of poisen ivy right now and am about to lose my mind. AAAaagghgh!!

 

[unknown]

I'd still like to see pics

 

[MajestikMøøse]

you're a wuss

 

[Chromatose]

I've found giving them a bucket of fried chicken with a side of watermelon stops them from biting.

 

[Krigloch the Furious]

dont forget the grape juice to wash it all down...

 

[Dead_Lioness]

I dont know what black fly is, but all I know is that I am a mosquito magnet...

I hate bugs.

 

[NinjaKitten]

I have to admit, I was hoping for pictures.

Blackflies are little bastards and they come in huge swarms, so I dont doubt the amount of damage. Mosquitos just cant get enough of me either, and they always manage to bite me right on my ass so it looks like I have some gross ass pimple or something all summer. Plus I dont look very classy walking around scratching my ass either... I think Ive said too much.
