Is anyone else finding they have a lot of house flies for the time of year?
We had a warmish spell around the end of November, and we were finding around 20-30 house flies a day, they were all a bit slow and lazy, so easy to swap/hoover up, I even got my eye in to snatch a few out of the air. They are medium sized house flies. They we had the cold snap, and not so much of a problem, now the weather has warmed up again we are getting 20odd flies a day all over the house.
There isn't any obvious place they are coming from, no rotting vegitation in the corner of the kitchen or anything else obvious. We live in a fairly rural area, farm fields around us in NE England.
Mid summer - I have grown to expect this, but never in Winter before.
1) Is anyone else having the same problem?
2) Is there anything I can do about it other than covering the house in fly paper or catching them every day?
