Imagine how an electric fly swatted would sound

[@mxtty5633]

Imagine one the size of a car just flying into that

[@ink7226]

Once a month? *this is definitely how lakes have periods*

[@c6786]

they swarm only to mate? i guess they go and multifly. Lol

[@enichols82]

c6786 *buh dum tsssssss*

[@theevildrummingsithlord1492]

Buzz off. You're bugging me.

[@stoneeh]

That's what nukes are for, kids.

[@stoneeh]

@Zombie Eric Harris yeah I guess the footage from WWII, the dozens of atomic tests, the footage from the Tsar Bomba wiping out hundreds of square kilometres, is all fake then. Damn, they had some really great CGI back in the day!

[@KronosMXVII]

Where’s A Nuke When u need one...

[@cplai]

House flies feed on garbage and feces. So you may get sick eating uncooked house flies. These flies live on the lake and probably are relatively clean. Thorough cooking should be able to make them safe for human consumption.

[@AJJDCSMP]

cplai there midges

[@daddy8884]

I dont know this may be lake victoria wich is extremely poluted Not by factories or plastic but by small organisms

[@samuelmwaipopo1302]

Those are not house fly

[@GPCTM]

once a month? really?

[@afmoney161]

I thought that was a fly's head on the camera in the corner!🤣

[@daddy8884]

They look like a mix of flying ants and mosquetos

[@smark30]

The announcer called them animals. Uh... insects?

[@insectilluminatigetshrekt5574]

Insects are animals

[@themilkman1334]

I would try that. It actually makes me hungry, I wonder what it tastes like.

[@potatochip7257]

u must be from africa

[@potatochip7257]

@Ben Turner thanks for the insight dude!

[@DatBwoiXERXESdem]

The Milk Man since it came from the lake, it probably has a fishy taste to it. I’d probably use salt peppor garlic powder chilli powder and eat it

[@moomoopuppy5810]

Does anyone know the name of this show?

[@cooperfredrickson3809]

I hate these things but they are fun to hit them down and watch them fall down

[@clapton4541]

Jon is the fly king

[@NoName-rj6qe]

Two dozen mosquito sprayers loaded with hairspray. Pit pat pit pat

[@FoolMan19]

If those were to swarm you you would have to spin around in circles spraying raid with one hand and swat with a fly swatter with the other

[@SaixNoforca]

Looks delicious

[@Ketsu626]

Saix Malaria patty

[@carolinekasera4064]

it has reminded me of my childhood, yes so yummy.

[@odhiamboomulo5937]

Get it right. These people have access to the best fresh water fish in the world. A higher protein diet compared to most of the world

[@AnalogueAbsynth]

gross

[@ticktockbam]

Shut up, moron.

[@otaku9004]

You probably buy discounted pre-packaged meat sometimes. That's probably worse than eating flies directly from your own backyard. Atleast they gather their own food, know where the food comes from and use whatever they can get nutrition from. Easy as fuck to live in the States or Europe, buying meat that has been bred, farmed, slaughtered, cut up and packaged without knowing anything about the conditions of the animal, what it has been fed or how much shit is in it :) Ignorance is gross.

[@Anthomemes]

@@ticktockbam r/woosh you noob

[@ticktockbam]

Yummy!

[@AngusRobins]

Man's impact again...

[@benjah.douglas]

africans are so cool

[@rxonmymind8362]

Nope. Nope. Nope.

[@jesusfranco4571]

Quick grab the Raid© !! Jesus!! And I complain about eating my shitty cheese burger

[@toy4115]

으으 이게머야...

[@desu38]

So how does it taste? Like tiny flying shrimp?

[@lexistephens9240]

desu38 I’ve ran into a fucking frenzy before with flys and accidentally breathed them in its nasty as fuck

[@daddy8884]

Not good

[@keeganmoonshine7183]

@@lexistephens9240 cuz you didn't cook em

[@keithflowers9217]

Not so sure you have the facts correct. I think you will find that they actually breed in the Lake and lay their eggs there, otherwise how do the Lake Fly start their life coming out of the Lakes? The Lake Fly certainly don't fly back out into the Lake to lay their eggs.

[@bubbasdually]

someone should crop dust pesticides over the area

[@cplai]

Nature is live and let live. All animals are part of the food chain. The famous chairman Mao of China once disliked the birds bothering the crop fields and told the people to kill them. That caused a famine when the locusts wiped out the fields in next season. Birds eat the insect larvae including the locusts'. Don't upset an eco system if you don't have to. Besides, where will the pesticides settled?

[@Rhodieman]

And then the entire ecosystem would collapse. They are the foundation of the system.

[@Iazzaboyce]

Imagine if Burger King only opened once a month.

[@JTM45100]

Please ship every black welfare recipient here.

[@jessy61071]

lol damn son.

[@rxonmymind8362]

How about EVERY welfare recipient.👍

[@big.r5550]

Let's start with your impotent mother.

Yummy!
