i would say crickets would be worse, so loud and annoying, to get rid of the flies you can buy stick fly traps and open the windows and spend a while chasing em around with a electric fly zapper

Electric fly zapper, eh? I like your style. :)

 
Had a couple thousand hatch in an opened box I'd forgotten about when I used to run a home business called Mysterious Creatures in a previous life. The (now ex-) wife wasn't too pleased about it. I can laugh now, but it was a long night of chasing flies around the house with a net and shooing them off my sleeping, infant daughter's face. Accidents, marriages and divorces happen!

I actually caught all of them at night using a red light for illumination (they can't see red). I then promptly sucked them up with my mega aspirator and readily offered a feast to my gongylus. :)

I remember my fridge being not cold enough to get maggots into that little torpor they are in when it's really cold. So, there was a little opening in the container, and almost all maggots managed to get out overnight. This was on the first day of Christmas - you don't have to guess that my family was not happy :p

"On the first day of Christmas I got from my baby; a fridge full of maggots, so I'm gonna snatch his butt in a bear trap and let him hang from a tree!"

Ouch Krusz. And I know how big Christmas is in that part of the world ;) . I can only imagine what your family said.
