There are about 100 dead flies on the windowsill that I'm going to vacuum up. Visible living populations have sharply dropped off (tho that's normal for them).
Once they're all dead I'll be cleaning out the space between the screens and the windows so hopefully I don't need to repeat the experience with a larger N
