I know we are blessed at the moment in the South East by having lovely hot weather but I have never seen so many flies ever before- great big Bluebottles- . I have had to take the kitchen bin outside although I change the liner regularly & have used Bin Fresh on it daily too.
Even keeping kitchen door shut ( which is a pain as it faces where the sun is all afternoon) doesn't stop them.
It's costing me a fortune in fly spray & I think they have learned to use the cat flap!

I use Vapona window stickers. They're a sunflower shaped and coloured sticker that you put on the window, top corner is ideal, they are unobtrusive and not at all unsightly. The stickers contain a chemical that, when flies land on them, kills the flies. We have sat in the lounge and watched this happen, it literally takes just a few minutes to take effect. The flies are attracted to the "flower" and die very soon afterwards! No nasty fly sprays either.
