5 strong this gloom. The humidity registered at 86%, but it had to be a lie. The Horsefly gave us some trouble. It is said that they are fast, strong fliers that most often attack moving and dark objects, especially in wooded areas. They are most evident on hot, windless days. They require a blood meal before they can reproduce effectively. Their bite can be quite painful because their mouthparts are used for tearing and lapping. They are persistent and generally continue biting until they either succeed or are killed.
We were sitting ducks, and 1 Fly took on 5 grown sweaty men. Would it be weak to bring a fan to the beatdown as a prevention measure? It took some coordination to swat flies mid exercise, but we pushed forward, regardless.
