Where do flies go when it rains?

OK, the obvious answer is they hang under leaves. But look, it's been sunny today and there were bloody flies everywhere; and then I went out in the garden in the rain and must have checked under about thirty-five leaves, looking for the flies. I saw snails there, but not a single fly.

Where do flies go when it rains?

Every time...I get pains...
Just like me
They want to be
Close to you

Er, wait.

I thought you were supposed to be off celebrating Estonia being in the EU or something. ;-)

I thought all of them international observers this time were supposed to be from Latvia and Lithuania...!

In the grass, in trees, sheltered spots

Rain is just all the flies in the world going to the fly toilet at the same time (this is what clouds are, travelling fly lavvies). Hence they are above the rain.

do you know that if you hang water bags in the room then there's no flies? why is that? and has it anything to do with flies disappearing when it rains?
