Oh, very 'just so'!

Black flies / the little black flies
Always the black flies / No matter where you go I'll die with the black flies picking my bones....

Speaking as a person from northern Canada.... I can see ths as a good origins myth for the pesky things. I've got a picture I took when I was up inthe arctic where I can't see my feet thanks to the cloud of mosquitos and blackflies I was enveloped in.
