Texas prepares for war as invasion of flesh-eating flies appears imminent

Kurtzgesagt video on these flies.
Maybe it's time to get a screen for my front window.
Seems fitting
Is that, like, when you haven't been to the dentist in years and never floss?
Sorry, my education came from books approved by Texas
I know a few people who have more plaque than teeth. I always want to say something, but it always seems like it'd be rude so I don't.
The plaque isn't really the problem though (well it might be to their dental health but that's on them). It's the breath. I can't stand within 5ft without gagging. Like they're cool people otherwise, and I feel bad that it's so bad, but it literally smells like week old roadkill being near them.
Maybe some flesh eating flies can help here? Put them on the plaque and see if they eat it. The whole "larvae corkscrewing into the flesh" bit might lead to some cavities, but hopefully someone can get that piece under control, and worst case it'll help the dentist prepare for any necessary fillings I guess.
lord of the flies, lord beezlebub has finally returned.
