Resident Warns of Big, Biting Flies in Oxford

Has anyone else seen over-sized bugs in recent weeks?

Oxford resident Tanya Carver says that every time she goes into her garden to do a little work lately, she gets attacked by over-sized, biting flies.

I, too, have noticed larger flies and types of flying insects that I have never seen before. I wonder if this has to do with the humid weather we've been having. 

Has anyone else experienced something like this? Do you have any reason why? Let us know in the comments section.

Read Mrs. Carver's letter about the flies, and her new "perfume," here in this post she put on Patch.
