Shoo fly

There is currently a ..... fly chasing me around my house. I've somehow misplaced my fly swatter, thinking that all flies have gone to the fly resting place somewhere over the rainbow or wherever it is that flies go for the winter, maybe down south to the retirees and harass them as they sip their cocktails and eat oranges, but i certainly didn't expect him to show up in sub-zero temperatures - okay, my house's interior isn't sub-zero, contrary to some of my friend's opinions, but still, it's not ideal fly weather. He isn't even a "slow" fly like sometimes they are in the fall - he's a pretty nimble little stinker - i've tried to get him with the tea towel, my agenda, my tea cup, but alas, he's still got free range.. i know i wanted a pet to keep me company, but this is a little not quite what i had in mind... do they sell fly paper in December??
