Default flies

If you have young kids and don't like using fly killer try hairspray it 'fixes' the flies and you can then just hover them up.

I have also used the old fashioned fly sticky tape that hangs from the ceiling, its not prety but it does the job, hang it near a door or window and it gets them on the way in.

If you have a compost bin in the garden (I do and it was infested with fruit flies) Dun Laoghaire Rathdown Co.Co. Environmental Awareness Officer Suggested keeping it covered with grass or shredded newspaper as it keeps the smell down and doesn't attract so many flies!

Hope this helps
