How to get rid of flies?!!?

The past few months we've noticed more and more flies buzzing around our apartment. Now this isn't due to squalor, for we have our place cleaned by maids every 2 weeks... there's gotta be some other reason for this. Each week, there seems to be more and more! My roommates have gone on a fly-swatting mission but they keep showing up.... and there decent sized flies, too.. not the tiny fruit flies

Please help!
 
Get a ziplock bag and fill it with water. Tie a string to it, and hang it on your porch. The flies will be gone.

No really, people actually do this in Stephenville, TX. I don't think it works, but you seem desperate........
 
Get some fly strips.. its disgustingly amazing how many flies they will catch. Just toss em out as soon as they churn your stomache.
 
Obviously you have some how accidentally (hope it wasn't on purpose) opened the gates to hell. The flies are the precursor of demons and, yes, Satan himself to pass through the gates.

I'm not exactly sure how you can close the gate. I think you'll need the archangel Michael. I can't quite remember how to summon him.
Try googling for help.

those bags are for mosquitos, not flies. I think it has something to do with the way the light refracts or reflects from the bag, it scares them away or something. I've also heard that they fill the bags with sugar water, then the mosquitos try to suck some out, and there probosis gets stuck in the plastic and they die. Either way, it must work, i see this method everywhere. (Live in Texas and Florida)

but isn't this just a response to a bigger problem? isn't it the same as swatting all of them? They keep coming back!
