The weather has finally warmed up here and now there plenty of super annoying houseflies. They’re way to fast to swat and have an annoying habit of landing on you.

I’ve tried Google’s suggestion of water/vinegar and a bit of dish soap in a bottle, but they don’t seem to go for it at all.

I’m up for trying anything, please make suggestions!

    I’ve never thought of blocking out windows. I usually just wait for them to be stuck on a particular one, and catch them there.

    A transparent cup works very well because they can’t really see it coming. Then it’s just a matter of slowly working a piece of cardstock or similar under, and taking a trip outside.
