THE FLIES ARE DRIVING ME MAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TooTicky]

Any non-toxic tips?

smack em with a rolled up newspaper.

What, all of them? I don't know where they are coming from but they keep landing on me when I am cooking

Fly paper ?

We've got some, but these flies are cunning.

where d'you get flypaper from?

Not sure, dp bought it. Try a good old-fashioned hardware shop.

fly paper is wicked

are they fruit flies

PITA

Don't known if it'll work, but if you're going out for the day, maybe you could try one of those "bombs" that you set off. I recommend you stay out more than the recommended time though.

Mint & basil seem to keep the pesky things out.

octavia, what do I do with the mint and basil? Living plant or essential oil?

you need one of these you do they're really good

I brought the herbs from the garden center with the intention of planting them in my non exsistant herb garden! left them on the kitchen window sill a couple of months ago.They are still there but no flies,apparently they hate it

Thanks
