Brief Explanation

Ideas, the wisdom says, can come from anywhere. This one came from above a barrista's head as he was preparing my skinny cappuccino. The iridescent blue bars of light hanging from the ceiling were installed as an effort to control the normal assortment of bugs. A standard commercial bug deterrent apparatus. As corny as it sounds, the light flickered, and hoopla. A banner for Pestfree germinated in our heads. The result is this entry. A murderous piece of communication that lets you use your mouse, to zap a bug. Over and over again. Wicked.
