faces north and east. I have repeatedly sprayed them with a fly killer but
as soon as the spray disperses they are back again.

The only thing growing in the vicinity of the swarm is an Ivy. This is about
3 feet away but the flies do not seem to go near to it.

Can someone please advise me what would cause this and how can I get rid of
them.

Many thanks

i HAVE THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. However, I haven't seen any solutions here. Can anyone help me? My swarm stays about 5 feet from my patio door. It never moves and doesn't react to bug spray. I have sprayed and cleaned many times to no avail. the swarm just hangs about 5-6 feet above the cement floor of the patio. It makes my patio UNUSABLE! PLEASE HELP!
