Thanks very much Sheel :TSheel wrote:Apart from the zapper that I put a link to earlier , there's also THIS on the Robert Dyas site. Don't know how effective they are though
I've got the exact same thing but it's up in the loft. We'd forgotten all about it!
So, I've just saved £9.99, (or will have when O/H goes in the loft
)
Many thanks.0 -

Apart from the dreaded aerosols, what else kills house flies?
Just use the aerosols. As long as you use it inside it won't harm the environment0 -

Spray a bit of Raid to kill them - I do that with big spiders as I can't stand them (even to splat - I let the spray kill them, then they curl up and are easy to get rid of - plus you get to see a slow and painful death)

I just catch the daddy long legs (unless the dog gets them first!!) and throw them back outside. For flies, I am using fly papers. Ugly yes but they do work!0

I pick them up by a wing take them to my friendly spiders webs in the garden, they love em!0

I had dozens of the darn things in the house last night, they kept flying low and attacking, getting stuck in my hair, drove me blinking nuts. I just got out the Pledge and spritzed them one by one and then got the Dyson out. I reckon there was about 10 altogether, and a moth or two, oh and one down the back of the sofa, all in the Dyson now.“Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot.
