Houseflies in Switzerland, summer 2022
-
I followed the “Grand Train Tour” in mid-June 2022, so I stayed 2 nights each at 7 locations in Switzerland. Something memorably negative was the houseflies at a few locations.
– Restaurant “Chalet de Gruyères” at Gruyeres Castle. There were at 3 to 6 flies visible at any one time, constantly landing on our food.
– Restaurant Pizzeria Grund at Grindlewald Grund. There were EVEN MORE flies here landing on people and food. I killed at least
– Hotel breakfast of Eiger Lodge (Chic / Easy). Not as bad, but still the imagine wanting to pour fresh milk from a glass jug for cereal, but there is a fly standing on the crook of the spout.
– Trubsee lake playground (between Engelberg & Titlis), these were smaller than house flies, but more numerous. Saw a family try to barbecue food and I think they had to abort because of the flies.
Are flies entirely to be expected every summer? Or is this year unusually bad?
