Question:
Answers:
Kill them quick with fly spray. You need to find what is attracting them. Chances are you have some dead things up there. Bird, mice or a body perhaps? Get rid of the dead thing and the flys will be gone.
Just empty a can of fly killer into the loft. Squirt it through the loft access. That should see them off.
play a des O'conner album to scare them off, or val dunican
fly spray to start with..but you need to go & make sure there isnt something like a dead bird rotting away somewhere - that is causing the problem in the first place - it can happen.
We had this problem at work one of our office's was always full of the really big blue bottle type fly , we got rent a kill in , who let off a smoke bomb , did the job .
not sure if this applies to you , but if you have the small low voltage halogen lamps in your ceiling , because the back of them is exposed to keep them cool , the flies are attracted by the light
Find out what it is that is attracting them to your home. Once you do; eliminate the source that is causing them to get in your house. Other whys you will just keep getting them. For a less toxic way of getting rid of them put up some fly tape where they are hanging around them most. If you have a compost pile near your place try moving to a further location. If you just throw away your vegetables peelings (etc,etc) put them in bag first, then tie the it close before tossing it out in to a trash can (one with a lid works better).
Inspect the loft and find out where the flies are nesting. Install an attic ventilator and blow them away. Flies and mosquitoes have a hard time flying in moving air.
You get these cute fly traps. They consist of two parts, the bottom is a container with liquid bait, and the top is a funnel shaped thing that lets the flies crawl through and then they can´t get out again. See if you can hang it just outside the loft under the eaves. Then you can catch the blighters before they come in. The bait lasts about 3 to 6 months depending on how may get caught and the weather.
most of the answers should work
Karen h & Gizmo are right
you usually get this problem for a reason
the part of my job i hate the most stiffing out a dead animal
check the roof void
if you remove the reason there attracted to the area they should soon go away
sometimes the dead animal is in a wall cavity where you can't get too.in this case you would most likely need to treat
in a roof maybe a mist or fog bomb
Invest in a 4in1 pest repeller by vermatik. I got mine from price drop tv. It is very effective and keeps away all manner of insects and rodents.
