Hey Tom, where did you get that fly paper? Vernon and I have been on a wild fly paper goose chase.

I brought it with me from home last year. They sell it at Lowe's.

Cool; thanks. Drugstores, supermarkets, laverdes... nowhere has it! And the guy at target was like 'what's fly paper' in response to my asking if they sold it. Grr.

Yeah I looked at all those places too and couldn't find it. Liza sweetly brought it with her after the summer because I had spent the entirety of it complaining about fruit flies.

I'd try a hardware store, not a grocery store - Central or Harvard square.

Yeah, it's true. I kept thinking that it would be such a common thing that there would be no need to try a hardware store. But it does look like that's the kind of place to find it.

Frankly, I don't understand; every place we looked had several varieties of mouse traps, ant traps, roach traps, outdoor anti-bug lanterns, and aerosol flying insect killer. But nothing for flies. I feel like flies have gotta be a common problem; it doesn't make any sense that they wouldn't have it. Moreover, lowes.com gives no results for "flypaper" or for "fly paper." Only when you search for "fly" does it come up. Bastards.

Anyway, Vernon and I will probably hit a hardware store soon... then DOOMCom will be somewhat free of flies, and slightly more covered in flypaper.

Those are exactly the kind and they are very good except when they stick to you or the walls.
