In the last summer, I was happy and happy to treat one Fly in apartments I went into the bus. This was my first time when there was an apartment with an outdoor place.
Recently, I left my apartment at the end of a week, and when I opened my door after three days, I was congratulated by a flock of guests called without calling – fly.
It turns out that in some small mistakes it was all taken to convert my house into their breeding ground, so it is time to learn from my mistakes.

Last year, the problem of my house made an important point clear: where there is food, there are flies. Whether it is food, you are actively cooking, left in pan, scrap in garbage, or even the remains left on things in your recycling, flies will always move towards food; More fermented, better.
Equipped with this knowledge, I put all my dishes in my sink in the dishwasher and took out the garbage before leaving. But even though I took this preventive measure, I forgot about some important things:
- I forgot to run my dishwasher and even left it slightly open, allowing flies to feast the right buffet to eliminate food residues.
- I left a heavy Three Glass bottles in my recycling. One of the bottles was a bottle of red wine – some flies could not resist, even though they wanted.
- Finally, and most importantly, I left the fruit. My bananas were not quite ripe yet when I left, but I returned to a lot of brown spots, and Rotten fruit So far there is another thing that brings flies to your home.

I am still actively struggling with flies. Returning home from my weekend trip, my partner and I guess that perhaps 50 flies were dropped into our apartments. Every room had flies on the walls on our furniture; They could not escape.
So, when is their removal notice coming? soon hopefully.
I made it immediately Apple cider vinegar net In shallow bowls to attract and kill flies. To make my mesh, I put a little apple in cider vinegar (just enough to cover the bottom of the bottom completely, but not so low that the flies can walk instead of the float), a pinch of sugar, and then I put a pump of dish soap. For additional remedy, you can also put Saran rap or foil on top and strike some holes – which will prevent flies from flying out.
This mesh sinks them, and you can repeat it with another pantry staple.
I have also kept Sticky net Also near the main hub of flies to get rid of them. If you are not a fan of DIY methods, but do not want to use anything toxic in your home potentially, then the sticky mesh is to go one for a reason (as well as I find it a little satisfactory to see all the flies caught by it).
These two methods have been extremely effective, there are just many flies to deal with it; The thank goodness fly season is almost over.
