Main goal is odor control, since it seems flies are attracted to things that smell and has an odor. You should try different brands of litter. I hear ones with baking soda are a pretty good choice. Or add baking soda to your litter of choice. You also may need to change it more often than you normally do, especially in the summer months.

How do i get rid of cat odors in a house?
You need to use products that remove ammonia, if the cat is using carpets/clothes as a litter box. Most pet shops will sell various sprays for this. Cat urine has ammonia in, which is what attracts the cat to use the same spot again and again. If your cat is using the litter box, but has strong-smelling faeces, it may indicate a poor diet. Contrary to popular belief, a cat's stool should not smell strongly at all, and is often due to being fed a poor quality food, often full of grains and other cereals. If your cat allows it, you can also try a covered litter tray. This will contain any smells better than an open tray. If this is not possible, then sprinkling Baking Soda in the litter itself will help mask odours.

Did cat litter affect human behavior?
For the most part, cat litter is not harmful to humans, since it is generally made from clay, and contains no chemicals. So, no, most kinds of litter won't affect your behavior (other than keeping your house from smelling bad). But something else might have a bad effect. Cat litter is not entirely safe due to what's in it-- cat feces (or poo, if you prefer). Cat feces contain a parasite that can be very dangerous to pregnant women and people with weakened immune systems. To make sure you don't get infected, a cat owner should probably wear disposable gloves, and get rid of cat litter properly, and on a regular basis -- put it in the trash, and if you are pregnant, have someone else dispose of it.
