Hanging from the patio ceiling are bags of water (you go Dallas) but they have pennies in them. Just a few. Supposedly, this helps keep the flies away.<br /><br />2) We have been enjoyed many meals on our newly finished covered patio. The flies were in the way (but my arms loved the workout) and so I turned on the overhead ceiling fans. It seems to help "blow" the flies away. So, knowing ya'll don't have your patio cover (yet), plug in an oscillating fan and see if that helps (at least some).<br /><br />Glad to share my aged wisdom!

What does the bag of water do? Haven't heard that before, will be giving it a try. We love to grill in the summer and just got a new grill last year....can't beat end of season clearance on those type of things.Holly Ayteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07490366993207339368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29783525.post-46997690129081137112009-05-21T22:39:40.351-05:002009-05-21T22:39:40.351-05:00You could hire me!
