Hi,

Normally I am averse to killing anything, slugs, mice, whatever. And as far as I'm concerned flies can dance on as much sheep poo as they like, which is, in the main, outside. But the house is inundated with flies, and they're desperate to get into anything, on the plate as you eat, on your hands, up your nose. You get the picture.

So, any advice on the best domestic fly zapper? I've seen a small plug-in thing which isn't much larger than one of those so-called fresh-air wafters. Are they any good (the fly-killer, not the air-freshener). I don't want a huge industrial fish-and-chip shop job, but some deterrent is essential, apart from waiting for winter.

Rgds.

Yea,I know how you feel about killing things .Some years ago I had the some problem and to help my conscience about killing flies ,I introduced spiders into the house.I was assured that as soon as the spiders killed of the flies ,they would move on to "pasturs greener".
Could anybody suggest something I could now introduce to get rid of the spiders :cry:

I believe the next animal on the list is a bird.

If you're still in trouble by the time you get to needing the cow, call in the professionals... :LOL:
 
what about getting an old woman to swallo them!
 
RAID fly spray. spray around the whole whole room and close the door for 10 minutes. 50% extra freee at our shop. :cool:
 
Kes I had exactly the same problem during the recent hot spell when we had the doors wide open to try and get some relief from the heat.
Solution, a fly screen , or in our case two.
Doors can be left open all day and we rarely see any flies or wasps.
Well worth the outlay of around £19
