Flies are very unpleasant "neighbors" in an apartment, so you need to know how to get rid of them.

Of course, installing a mosquito net will be an excellent preventative measure.

But if for some reason you don’t have it, then you should consider other options for dealing with flies.

What methods are worth knowing about?

Use vinegar

It is useful for many to know that almost all insects cannot be in a room with a strong smell of vinegar. Therefore, you need to determine where you most often see flies. After that, pour vinegar into a saucer and leave a "surprise".

You can also combine vinegar and water in equal quantities and treat all surfaces in the house, including window sills and window frames.

Plants

Lavender, basil and mint are good options in the fight against flies. Eucalyptus and cloves also have a good effect.

You can make sachets based on plants, or you can add essential oils to the cleaning product.

Special bouquets

In season, you can dry wormwood, elderberry branches, nettles, and tansy. These plants will be excellent additions to dried flower bouquets.

Even when dry, these herbs will drive flies out of your apartment.
