You are aware of course that these are quite popular as sex toys as well.

I wont ask how you know that.

I still think one needs to establish where they are coming from.

He already knows that, all those corpses of those he has murdered.

If its inside you need to find the source. I had a problem with carpet
beetles a few years ago, when they died there were carpets of them on the
window sills. We suspect they were eating the wool underlay in the sitting
room.

Is anyone else being plagued by lots of flies indoors?

In the kitchen we have a UV light electrocution device (similar to the
Insectocutor ones that butchers use) and a length of sticky flypaper.
But the flies seem to avoid both of these. The UV zapper is great for
catching tiny fruit flies, but larger bluebottle sized flies don't seem
to be attracted to it. We've tried it both near a window (which will be
light during the day) and in a darker part of the room, and we've left
it on overnight when the UV light will be the only light source that the
flies will see.

We had a fly trap outside which mimicked the smell of rotten meat and
that caught thousands of flies but may need renewing because it doesn't
seem to be attracting as many flies now.

As I write, there are five of the little buggers flying around me all
the time. I've got a UV light right next to me, but they avoid that and
fly everywhere else...

Using one of these can be a source of great satisfaction, though despite
sparks being visible, they are often only stunned, so while they are
unconscious take swift action to reduce one of their dimensions to close
to zero
