I have had flies appearing in my apartment. Where are they coming from?All doors and windows are shut.?
IN a matter of about 20 minutes a fly or two will appear after I killed the others off. Garbage is empty. Nothing in the sink. Doors shut and windows closed. Has me baffled. What can I do ? Where are they coming from ?

They are just hatched. They are coming from larva left by the previous flies.

Aside from the above possibilities (quite true--they DO lay eggs on other dead flies, like in window sills), it could be a source of food you can't see, like crumbs from eating on the couch or in bed (any slobs around?). We had this and there were larvae under the couch cushions, where all the crumbs had slipped down! So check those places too. They also LOVE places where babies + toddlers drop food, like car seats and high chairs.

Yuk. I had this happen to me once too. All these disgusting flies coming from "nowhere". I think they were hatching from somewhere. I had a new housemate at the time who had a box sitting in the lounge room. I decided they came from something she had in there. Lasted a few days and then no more. So gross.
