I'm gonna show ignorance here, but I'm smoking a little, and I have a ?
You know how a peice of fruit that sits for a while will one day have little gnat-like bugs flying around it?

Like if you dropped a bag of apples and one rolled under the cabinet or something, and stayed there until one day you notice these little bugs flying around.

That apple didn't attract the bugs, it produced them.

And that's where the question comes in - how the heck did that apple produce those bugs? Were they there, inside the apple, all along, as some sort of larva?

Ok, munchies abating....

seriously tho, where do those bugs come from?

1. What difference does it make? You've got the munchies -
You know you're gonna wash that piece of fruit and eat it anyway. :silly: Either that or a box of garlic croutons....oh wait, I'm sorry, that was me who did that.

2. The eggs in the fruit when you buy it is just added protein.
Be happy they don't charge you extra for it.

14. Trolls troll, that is to say they put out bait and hope for a bait.
So someone who trolls is a troller. like a fishing troller.

Thank you Far Side. Now, to get rid of you must first find parasitic wasps.
