Why the windows don't have screen - is it a NZ culture?

This will attract the flies. They will breathe in the pepper, sneeze and knock themselves out on the stone.<br /><br />God bless.Victor S E Moubarakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04280638667651857296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2007105981868145103.post-19138653929799252152018-02-07T20:03:51.462+13:002018-02-07T20:03:51.462+13:00Cows do seem to attract the flies in large numbers...Cows do seem to attract the flies in large numbers.

A simple band with glue on it which attracted the flies and they got stuck. The band hang from the kitchen lamp down.
