I thought I had got the invasion down to one survivor but I have killed four since.
I have opened a window but have lowered and closed the venetian blind to prevent entry.

You paid too much..they are only a quid in Poundworld and kill the flies just as effectively.

Killed another six this afternoon so far.
They are cheeky little beggars.
They land on you and tickle.
Hardly any sound, so you don't see them until they land.

Flies are all over the world, and are spread by the winds, any wind over 10mph and the flies will go on till the wind drops.
