I am growing this plant in my window sill and it's just coming into
flower. Do I need to put it outside to pollinate the flowers?

This is the first time I've tried peppers.

They will need pollinating somehow. Outside, you're relying on insects
to do that, but inside use a small soft paintbrush, shaving brush,
cotton bud, whatever. https://tinyurl.com/y7qz9pya

Thank you, I'll see if I can find a tiny paintbrush. I suppose that I
could put it outside in the sun and bring it in later in the day.

Even outside, I'd hand pollinate them rather than just relying on
insects.

Thanks, I did that earlier, I found a tiny bristle eye brush.:-)
