    Thanks, Cataholic. I already have 3 more cats than I'm allowed to have in this 2-room apartment (2 pets is "legal" maximum). None of them is much on fly-catching.

    The strips have been totally useless. Not one fly has gotten stuck so far.

    I got a fly swatter yesterday. Very little help, because so much of the time they don't land on flat surfaces.

    On Monday I will call the apartment-complex management again and tell them the strips aren't working at all, see what else they can come up with.

    Sigh, this is such a big pain in the @$$. There seem to be more of them just since this morning!

    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Sorry, no help here. We're lucky to have cats who hunt them down. Unfortunately, they are unconcerned if they knock a bunch of glassware off the shelf in the pursuit of said fly.
    Ask your vet about microchipping. ~ It could have saved Kuhio's life.
