| 316854 | 2005-01-23 08:51:00 | OK, I purchased a new LCD screen but unlike my old CRT the flies are drawn to it like...well- flies! Pardon the unintended but unavoidable pun, have you considered fly screens? If your budget is limited, you can even make them yourself out of a light wooden frame and some open-mesh gauze cloth (net curtain material). You can take them out when you close the windows, or when winter comes and the flies go to sleep. Vision is a bit limited but it is ok if you don't want the view. Take a look Here (www.tipking.com) as well for more ideas. Cheers Billy 8-{) |

| 316856 | 2005-01-23 10:04:00 | Really? :eek: I've never heard of flies being attracted to LCD monitors. Do you clean your monitor with liquid detergent? If so, maybe the detergent carrys something that attracts the flies.... Strange... weird... confused... Nature has gone crazy |

Droll, very droll GF, I love it! :p Cheers Billy 8-{) (I wish we had a proper LOL emoticon, that silly blue thing :lol: looks like advanced indigestion or constipation, or something even more uncomfortable involving sharp impacts to the groin region.) |

I have done as GF suggested and it works well... only problem is that it looks like a shower cap with all that elastic holding it on and I can't see well enough to 'close the Windows' |
