DIY Strategies For Ridding The Home Of Gross Flies

Homemade Traps

Although traps will not deter flies from entering a home, they are successful in keeping them away from the kitchen or bedrooms and getting rid of the flies that do make it inside. One of the simplest traps is the vinegar flytrap, which is made from vinegar, a glass or plastic bowl, and cling wrap. Another natural way to rid a home of flies is to stock up on Venus flytrap plants, carnivorous plants that attract and eat flies. Homemade fly strips can also do the trick. These are made from cardboard, sugar, maple syrup, and string. Traps involving wine and honey are other easy home remedies for minimizing the number of flies in a home. If all else fails, use a homemade fly spray by combining water and washing detergent in a spray bottle.
