Can someone please advise how to get rid...

of Bluebottles/huge flies? Just to day I have been plagued by bluebottles in my kitchen. I keep spraying with flykiller, but next time I go in kitchen there are more of them. I have removed my kitchen bin, so they aren't coming from there. There is no food around the place. I am really puzzled, and a bit freaked out by it. Any helpful ideas anyone please?

I have the same problem. They are driving me to despair. I have found myself getting quite violent with the fly swatter lol.

Get yourself one of those electronic fly killer things with the blue lightbulbs. Don't get the tiny cheap ones though as they are a false economy.

I have this one:

I have always hated buzzy things in the house and I would actually say I'm borderline insect phobic. It's bad enough when they buzz around your ears outside (I hate wasps!) but I can't stand them in the house. I never used to open windows or doors (yes, we all sweltered!) but I discovered insect door nets and it's brilliant. No more buzzy insects in my house anymore!

Can't understand it - it's only happened today. I have already accumulated 8 corpses.

if you want to get flies out of your kitchen, put a bucket of poo in your sitting room.

Ankou, that really made me laugh!

And me, nearly as much as buzzy things in the house. No rabbit then scrummy?

as Ankou has mentioned the p word, I want to say what I saw in the 99p shop at lunchtime. It was a plastic cowlike animal with small brown chocolate (?) pellets which you put in the mouth and then collect out of the rear end. I couldnt believe that somebody would design this.

Jan1957 what do you mean by 'no rabbit then scrummy'?

[scrummyyummy]

Ooerr, Jan! I'm afraid no 'rabbit' in the house!! Just 2 kids and a hubby and new chickens so no time for any rabbit, I'm afraid!

[scrummyyummy]

I'll let Jan explain!

Max loves bluebottles, he follows them round the house till they settle in range then he pounces, eats them and settles down with a satisfied look on his face

Sorry, it's just the "buzzy thing" made me think of a rampant rabbit think Ann Summers). My mind is in the gutter today.

[notasyoungasiwas]

I thought you meant a lovely furry little rabbit with big ears!!

Doh !!!!

It's better to clean the area and apply some disinfectant or try the smoke execution
