A few months ago we were getting my dd dressed in the mornin only to find about 8-10 10p piece size bites/swellings. We sorted these out & stripped her room down (never found anything) but it seemed to solve the problems. Unfortunately ever since she has a meltdown if there is even the smallest fly anywhere near her/ in the room/ on the glass outside. It's getting steadily worse to the point she was sobbing unconsolably this morning as she'd seen a tiny fly across the other side of the kitchen.
She's only 2 and trying to explain they won't hurt her is having no effect - has anyone any advice on this as in all other ways she's a rough tough brave tomboy and I'd like to help her get over her fear if possible before it gets set for life. Thanks.
