Just heard a great story on Car Talk. On the segment, “Stump the Chumps,” they revisited a caller who asked them the best way to get rid of a fly nest/hatch in his car [1]. The Car Talk guys had recommended a bug bomb. Well, after looking at all the warning labels on a bug bomb, the caller decided NOT to use it. Instead, he used a little science. He remembered that when temperatures drop, flies go away. So he parked his car in a friend’s cold storage facility. Sure enough, his car is now bug free. What a great use of a little observational science!
