Each summer and season brings a plague of different bugs and insects to Provence. One year it's two-inch millipedes, drawn out into the sunshine after torrential downpours. The next season it's the stupid, lazy longhorn beetle you bump into everywhere.
Our pet hate is the flying ant who rock up for a few days and hunt down candle-light in droves as you're relaxing on the patio.Normally, we burn citronella candles to deter these beasts.
Now, I think I've discoverd a way of nuking them once and for all: the solar powered insect killer. Simple in name and concept, but will it work as efficientlly as it suggests? Low in carbon print, will it be high in death rates? Guidance sought!
