Maybe the sign refers to pests rather than aviation?
I think you're right.
Odd that it says "fly" and not "bug", though.
Technically, bugs are a very specific kind of insect; it's got to do
with having sucking, rather than biting, mouth parts.
I am well aware of that. Unlike the major proportion of the North
American population.
Also, pretty much all the insects that affect sheep and cattle are known
as flies; bot fly, canker fly, etc.
My first reading of the sign that it was an old pesticide distribution
site.
