We were having a meal at a pub in the lakes a few weeks ago, start of October, it was evening time and there was a serious fly problem especially when we were eating with many tables complaining, the owners did the best they could and offered a discount, but we have never been affected that bad ever.

Posted on 21/10/2021 20:56 by peedeeI am on a small commercial site in rural Herefordshire and it's the same here. They seem to be attracted to white especially on the motorhome side in the sunshine.

We too have had them in large numbers down in Cornwall and Devon. We have to keep the fly screens down All of the time to try and keep them out of the van as Flyte gets very upset when he heard any in the van, although he's not bother when he is outside. It must be that the buzzing sound they make resonates differently within the confines of the van than it does in the outside.

We have got them here in the Lot France a lot more out when the sun is out and now have got the Ladybirds harlequin species that are attracted to the caravan and try to get inside if possible again they like white and they give off a horrible smell as we had a terrible time with them about 4 years ago in a different caravan.
