Obligatory didn't happen today.
So I was leaving my apartment for what I thought would be 4-5 days max due to a minor finger surgery (I was going to stay with my relatives because I knew I'd need support). Before going out, I looked at the trash bag ready for takeout in the main corridor, and decided I'll take that out when I'm back.
Well the surgery didn't go as routine as expected, and long story short, I was gone for almost three weeks. In the middle of a heatwave.
Cue to me coming back after three weeks, not expecting anything bad. It was already evening and dark. I came back, went straight to the living room, put down my bag...
And noticed a fly.
Okay, no biggie. I slapped that one.
Then I saw another.
At this point, I look closer at the glass door leading outside...
To see at least 5 more right in front of me. I thought it's weird, but it still didn't click. I notice that the door is somewhat a LOT more dirty than I remembered, which I also find weird.
Then I go to the main corridor and turn the light on... To see an army of flies going around EVERYWHERE, and that's when I notice the source (and my fuck up) - they bred in the trash.
Don't ask me how I missed them when I first went in. I have absolutely no idea. They didn't really do a lot of buzzing, and for some reason, I didn't even think to look around.
Completely pissed off and with a still not completely functional finger, I take out that damned trash and start killing left and right - I counted about 35 flies killed by me scattered around the apartment, plus shoutout to the brave spiders who caught and piled up about 20 more in multiple spots (I'm never killing a spider again). There were also a lot more trapped in the trash bag itself (taking that out was disgusting).
I drenched my whole apartment in chemicals the next day, still finding a single fly here or there to kill. Those little shits shat all over a) the walls (mostly right next to the bag), b) my kitchen, c) the doors and d) the glass door leading outside. And that's ignoring the splatters I caused by killing them.
On the bright side, I learned the baby flies are easy to catch with a vacuum cleaner. On the shitty side, my still-recovering finger did absolutely not like that action.
Overall, 0/10, would not recommend, and will never postpone taking the trash out again.
TL;DR: Decided I'll take the trash out "later" only to become a professional fly swatter and house cleaning specialist.
