    My Bp Struck at a house fly

    I've never heard of this but I was holding him a fly was flying up to his face and he tried to strike at it... is that normal or do I have an odd snake?

    I had gnats pestering Maze in her enclosure right before cleaning day, and I caught her lunging and rubbing her head agsinst the substrate to get it to stop. Turns out some bugs are just ss irritating to snakes as they are humans lol. (gnat issue has been fixed. I hate them so much. and flies. flies suck.)

    gnats are smaller than flies. if you keep bananas in your house for any period of time they will start buzzing around them and its so, so annoying. theyre actually fruit flies, but 'gnat' is a blanket term for really small flying insects. and they're annoying. so annoying. hate them lmao.

    Oooh I used to have an over huge amount of fruit flies cuz I was a slob and never cleaned then when I started cleaning they still stuck around so I left a disposable cup of wine on the kitchen counter they all flew into it and either drowned or died of alcohol poisoning I haven't seen them since
