I recently received an email from a friend who says that she has a dragonfl=
y pin on her hat and this keeps the horseflies away.  The premise is that d=
ragonflies prey on horseflies and this is why.  She does not have to use re=
pellent when horseflies are about since she has been doing this.  Has anyon=
e else tried this method of control and does it work?

I know at the moment that the store in Petite Riviere has dragonfly pins fo=
r sale on the basis of this and I would definitely buy one or more of these=
 pins to put on my hat if it does indeed work.  Thoughts on this would be a=
ppreciated.
