Flies in the Lobby Area
The Board of Directors has done a lot of research lately into the problem with have with flies in front of the building near the obelisk. I spoke with Terminix and their entimoligist to see if there is a solution for getting rid of them. Unfortunately, we were told that the flies are "Lesser House Flies" and they are congregating there for mating because it is a little more protected from wind and sun in that area. The flies ARE NOT attracted to any smells or substances out there, which means that a "fly trap" type of device will not stop them. The only suggestion we have received so far would be to mount a ceiling fan above the area to create enough downdraft that the flies would go somewhere else. If anyone has any other ideas, please post them on the blog.

I like the ceiling fan idea...
