Fruit flies bother apartment and house residents all year round.
Rotten fruits attract winged insects, which travel significant distances to achieve their goal.
If there are flower pots on the windowsill where you clearly poured more water than necessary, then midges will definitely settle in them.
These insects reproduce very quickly. However, there is one way to scare away these annoying creatures.
Experienced gardeners have noticed that a tomato plant on a windowsill repels midges. The plant emits a specific smell that insects hate.
For example, you can grow cherry tomatoes in an apartment. These tomatoes are suitable for indoor conditions, so you can drive away midges and collect a harvest for salads and preserves. Suitable varieties: "Pigmey", "Baby", "Cherry", "Bonsai".
The vegetable itself will do, and you can put it on the table or windowsill. But this option is less effective. In addition, you will have to make sure that the tomato does not spoil, otherwise it will be useless.
