[TheForge] Slightly off topic- horse fly trap

[jerry Frost]

I've never seen a fly trap like that one but I'm familiar with the
principle. Hanging a jar an inch over a pan of soapy water works a treat
too. There are commercial versions too but it's hard to beat a Mayo jar over
it's lid filled with soapy water. A bit of salt in the water makes good bait
but a dog turd or bit of old sandwich works too. Flies aren't fussy.

For those of you that work with horses or have them, or just happen to have
a shop in an area where the little buggers harass everybody, here is the DYI
solution.

Pretty simple and it seems to work.
