Australia- Flies, Flies Everywhere
Australia, specifically the Tropical North Queensland region, has many many incredible things to offer. Although it is nice to spend your days walking through the rainforests and discovering all the wonderful nature it has to offer, you will also come into contact with numerous flies.
While you are in the Rainforest you may find yourself doing the Great Australian Salute. This is what is referred to as brushing you hand across your face in order to ward off all the flies. Flies are so commonly found in this region, as well as all of Australia, that resident often joke about the flies being the National Bird for Australia.
When planning to spend a fair amount of time in the great outdoors, especially while attending picnics and barbecues and such, you will want to make sure to take along the bug repellent and be sure to bring along plenty of aluminum foil or saran wrap to cover up food items. Flies may also be referred to as little blitters and you will see most places have fly paper as well as fly swatters readily available.
A lot of Stockmen have discovered while doing work in the Bush that attaching a cork from the rim of their lid and allowing it to bounce back and forth helps oneself to deter flies from setting down on them while keeping their hands available to do their job. This great thought has also contributed to a saying in the area. When mentioning an individual who is intelligent, people will say there are no flies on him.
It is true, flies can be irksome and annoying, however they are not harmful to humans or animals. There are some flies in the region that do bite, and may sting a bit, however once you put some eucalyptus oil on the bit the sting will instantly dissipate. Yes, nobody likes to have these little blitter around, but while you are visiting the region you should learn how to adept to them, otherwise you may end up staying in door throughout your visit.
