@mid.individual.net: What do people use to get rid of them, Electronic Zappers? Feromone glue traps? sprays? Any recommendations based on experience please. Don Don I tried just about everything. In your home Electric Zappers work well, but a flytape will get those reluctant to the zapper. You can buy the battery powered zapper real cheap, and if you put them in every room you should not be bothered again.I think i paid £35ish for 7 of them from Aldi or Netto a couple of years ago The downside is that they kill every insect that flies or crawls into them, good or bad. If you find a supplier will you let the group know please. PtePike |

Don I got an electronic fly zapper but it failed to attract a single fly. They just thumbed their noses at it ;-) Maybe I should have got a more expensive one. I fall back on the fly papers, which are not pleasant but I won't use a poisonous spray that I might be breathing in myself and definitely not those "will last three months" things which my friend (a famous dog breeder) tells me interfere with her house dogs' oestrus cycle. If they can give out chemicals that can do that - I want none of them. So I suppose my safe solution suggestion would be glue-type fly papers unless you are a master swatter operator.

Why do you ask? Because your friend is a famous dog breeder. Now if she was a famous breeder of dogs that might be different. D'oh ! -- (¯`·. ®óñ© © ²°¹° .·´¯) |

She is a famous breeder of dogs (and her dogs are famous too) Hope that helps with my lack of correct English. You knew exactly what I meant though - were you having a bad day or something? FGS. |
