They keep appearing - where from!?

I'm becoming adept at knocking them out with a sock. But it's getting old.

They come into houses and such to shelter from the cold. There's nothing inside your place that's causing it that you can remedy

I had loads, but they all seemed have disappeared. Word must have around I was going banzai with newspaper and can of fly spray....

Look in your roof voids there's probably thousands wintering up there.

we've got the same issue, pfumer will kill most off (if you can cope with the cleaning aftermath) but a fresh load seem to come along the following year anyway. I'd love to get rid permanently but you've got to pick your fights. Find out where they're coming in to the house proper, seal it and leave them be.

Fly Paper works and there is nothing to sweep up - however when hanging make sure it's clear of head hight.
