Have taken over our downstairs living area. Eurgh.
The bin is empty, the food waste is outside, the kitchen is clean. What else can I do?
I realise the time of year is a factor.....

Oh and I have those window stickers on every window.

Should I just move upstairs, perhaps?

I have the window stickers, and before I go to bed each night I spray the room with fly spray and close the door.

They're really annoying, aren't they?

Ds and dh are really annoying with them also. 'aaaaagh a fly, a fly. Look a fly'. Ds is 3, excusable.....

dead body under the floor

or it might just be a leaking waste pipe.

If you shut the doors and windows, which room do they appear in?

Aaah well the problem is that one of our cats has pissed liberally all over downstairs. Dh opened all the windows and doors yesterday to 'give the place a good airing' and the flies took up residency. Now we live in a cat piss housefly house.

Not feeling an awful lot of cat sympathy tbh. But that's another story.
