Hi

In Spain you will always have flies, warmer months are the worst , living in the campo flies are a way of life, best to have a fly screen enclosure so you can sit and eat out in peace.

There are fly catchers you can buy, Red top from Amazon. You fill with a liquid provided and it allow flies in but they cannot get out. Do not place too close to seating as it gives off a smell to attract them. They work pretty well.

Fly screens on Windows too.

Luckily where I live we do not suffer with mozzies.

Have tried lots of suggestions like Citronella, lavender etc, they don't work.

Have seen a suggestion of using an upright electric fan where you sit and let it osulate gently, they don't like it when it's windy !

Hope that helps.
