walshie 2,804 Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 We had an influx of cluster flies last Autumn. They seemed to be living in a velux window. Opening the window got rid of them (we thought) but since then we've seen a few dead ones on the floor under the window. Are these dead ones just ones from the Autumn or are they still breeding? If so, what is the best treatment to get rid? Or is it a job for a specialist? Cheers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Waz 4,293 Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 I use smoke bombs/generators and spray a residual insecticide all around window frames. They are overwintering basically. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
delswal 3,819 Posted January 28, 2017 Report Share Posted January 28, 2017 I am sure one or two members on here could easily solve this problem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
trappa 518 Posted January 29, 2017 Report Share Posted January 29, 2017 They arent breeding, just staying warm over the winter. A pesty will sort them for you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
