As dream symbols, the annoying flies represent situations or people in your waking life which/who bother you. They may also stand for your problems and difficulties or for remorses you have buried in your unconscious. However, when you see flies in your dream, this means that all undertakings and enterprises will not become successful immediately, but after a long time has passed.

Flies may also symbolize a foolish plan or idea of yours which you should reconsider and think it over before putting it into practice.

Flies may also announce poor health, sickness, contagious maladies or enemies who are waiting just around the corner for the appropriate moment to stab you in the back. One way or the other, out of natural or unnatural causes, you will experience a period of grief and complications.

If the flies appear in the dream of a young woman, they stand for her lover's infidelity and for her failed love affair, unhappiness and ill luck in a nutshell. But if the young woman manages to chase away or kill flies in her dream everything will work out fine and her lover will show her deep feelings again.
