I'm being attacked!!!

No, really I am! My apartment complex, me, the neighbors, everyone living here always has a problem with fruit flies when the weather is warm...it's horrible, and you can't even leave one dish in the sink (even if it's rinsed off) without being swarmed by 10 million of these little fuckers! I hate bugs! Hate them! And I don't know what to do. I even had my house fogged last summer and it didn't help at all! Right now I'm sans bug spray, so I've been using anything I can find...Lysol counter cleaner, hairspray, air freshener, and now I've resorted to Pledge, citrus scent. That's it, Gabby! No more bananas and grapes for you! It only makes the problem worse. Even if my kitchen is spotless, they migrate to the bathroom and hang out on the mirror...I don't know what the hell they're getting from there! Maybe they like Windex...maybe that's why it doesn't help as a substitute bug killer.

Maybe there is a liquid banana hiding somewhere?
NO there's not!!! However...I started this new meal plan that includes a lot of vegetables, and the trash was NEWLY filled with cut up fruit and vegetable parts...

OMG, you'll REALLY gross out at this! This is a true story, it was actually on the news here in Pittsburgh recently!

This mother and daughter were having the biggest problems with worms in their closet! WORMS!!!! They were crawling all up and down the walls inside the closet, on the door, and flies were EVERYWHERE in their bathroom, which was the next door to the right of the closet.

Come to find, a man had DIED in the upstairs apartment, and had been there for SEVERAL DAYS! The worms were MAGGOTS!!!!! The mom had called the police to tell them about the "worm" problem, and then they figured they should check the upstairs, to which they discovered a horrible stench in the hallway. EEWWWW!!! Can you IMAGINE????
Yea, that scares me a little. The last time it was this bad, the maintenance guys told me that they figured out why. The guy on the third floor had died and been there for 3 days. On top of that his apartment was horrendous. He rarely walked his dog *hint hint*, and a whole number of foul things. I don't want to know if that's what's happening now. I haven't seen worms though. That's a good sign.
