Flies buzzing and making all kinds of shenanigans and don’t want to fly right out into freedom even if I open the window full throttle? Nah, they’re just freaking insisting on carrying on with their business on the inside of the window no matter what.😡

A commercial truck hauling an estimated 70,000 pounds of honey bee hives (containing live bees) overturned
on Weidkamp Road near Lynden at 4 a.m., setting an estimated 14 million bees loose Friday morning. Initially
estimates by police put it at 250 million, but that was changed after consultation with experts.

U need some kind of large ( full hand size ) plastic container and a firm flat thin piece of cardboard . Trap the fly against the widow with your container , then carefully slide the piece of card under the container all the way across creating a lid on your container with the fly trapped in the container . Then press the card tight onto the top of the container with your hand , take outside and take the lid off and the fly should buzz off , also works for spiders , wasps , bees , hornets and just about any other small irritating critter 👍 .

I remember a long time ago i made a smoothie and one just flew right into it and died. I didn't even get to taste it before it flew in and died, after i saw what happened i just poured it all down the sink like "nope".

Courtesy of my bug fearing wife, there are cans of spray located close at hand. Our unit has barrier surface spray around door and window frames. I tell her that spiders are good as they eat the annoying bugs, but she is merciless. I've put a mossie dunk trap front and back. Things we do for our wives..............

I have a better solution. I spray bug spray on the big window in the living room - the big window that flies like to land on because it's sunny. They don't hang out on that window for long...

Having flies in your home is not fun during the summer months.

First line of defence Vinegar. I use it as the main cleaning agent during the summers.
second divert attention at opposite sides of entry doors of house with reusable fly traps
third attack at night. They usually will gather on ceiling walls in your darkest room.

Sounds like you have a vengeance to settle. May God give you strength. 😉
