Best Methods to Get Rid of Flies

Method	Description	Note
Traps	Pour sugar syrup into the bottom of a glass jar (of any size). Insert a cone folded out of paper into the neck of the container (should not touch the bottom). The simplest option from a plastic bottle Fill the jar halfway with apple cider vinegar. Close the lid, after making holes in it, the size of which is large enough for the fly to get inside the trap. Smear long strips of paper or thin cardboard with very thick sugar syrup or a mixture of melted rosin (3 parts), any vegetable oil(1 part) and sugar syrup (1 part). Hang Velcro tapes in places where flies accumulate.	Having smelled an attractive smell and climbed into the jar through a narrow hole, the flies will not get out again.
		Traps with stuck insects look unaesthetic. Do not place them near heating appliances.
poisoned baits	Pour some jam, jam or sugar syrup on a saucer. Add a couple pinches of ground black pepper and mix well. Ground black pepper - a deadly poison for flies Similarly, use a mixture of water (1 cup), honey (10 grams) and saccharin (1 gram).	Both black pepper and saccharin are considered among the most effective home remedies for flies. Having tried the bait, the insect quickly dies.
natural repellers	Arrange pots with flies in places where flies room geranium, basil, laurel, lavender, peppermint. Use the same plants, but in dried form, as a filler for home-made flavors - cotton bags. Hang bunches of dried tansy, wormwood, fern over the windows. In the utility rooms (kitchen, pantry), lay out the tied fresh tomato stalks. Spread cinnamon sticks on windowsills, tables, shelves. Process wooden surfaces(frames, tables) with rags soaked in the essential oil of cloves, eucalyptus, lavender, peppermint, lemongrass. Periodically turn on the aroma lamp, filling it with one of the oils suggested above.	To ensure that the bags always smell delicious, shake the contents periodically. Change the filler at least once every two months.
		It is noteworthy that aromas that are pleasant to humans, but intolerable to flies, annoy other insects, for example, annoying midges.
Household repellers	In utility rooms (where people are not constantly), spray ordinary vodka from a spray bottle. Wash the floors with water with the addition of purified kerosene (about 50 grams per 10 liters of water). Among folk remedies for flies: turpentine, table vinegar 9%. They are also added to water for washing floors and wiping other surfaces.	Despite the fact that these methods help to quickly get rid of flies, their effect cannot be called long-term. In addition, neither people nor pets like the pungent smell.

Be sure to read the instructions and follow the dosage. One of the common poison bait recipes: mix 1 teaspoon of sugar and ½ teaspoon of chlorophos, dilute with water. Pour the poison into shallow containers (for example, saucers), arrange on the windowsills. Renew the bait after two weeks. "Crayons" are in demand because they are easy to use, but only suitable for hard surfaces, dangerous for small children and pets. Fly plates for the fumigator are considered safer. The only drawback is that one plate is enough, as a rule, not for long.	Place food in an airtight container before spraying. upholstered furniture cover with foil. People and animals in the treated room should not be! After a couple of hours, thoroughly ventilate the room, wipe all surfaces with soapy water.

Where do fruit flies come from?

In addition to ordinary flies, there are fruit flies. They cause trouble mainly in summer period. In order for these flies to appear, a favorable environment is needed: dampness, rotten fruits and vegetables. They reproduce quite quickly.

You can also apply chemicals from flies (aerosols, sprays).

If there are children or animals in the house, more gentle methods can be used. For example, in a glass jar, pour cold water, add some apple cider vinegar and dishwashing liquid. The smell of vinegar will attract fruit flies, and the soapy film will keep them from flying away.

Prevention measures

Many do not understand what a serious danger the buzzing "guests" are fraught with. Terrible diseases, sometimes fatal, are a weighty argument in favor of getting rid of these insects. But it is better to follow preventive measures than to spend money on fly repellents later:

First of all, you need to keep the house and apartment clean, because it is known for certain that flies are bred in unsanitary conditions. That's why wet cleaning every week is essential. Particular attention should be paid to garbage. For them, there should be a specially designated bucket with a lid. Garbage should be thrown out regularly in street bins.

For those who live in own house and has a farm Special attention you need to pay for a barn and a place for keeping livestock. onion flies they start in manure, actively lay eggs there. Getting rid of them is problematic. That's why better fertilizer immediately treat with a solution of vitriol or karphos.

Currently, there are proven sprays and aerosols that have passed all the necessary tests. They don't provide negative impact on people's health, while giving great result in the fight against flies.

Everyone knows how quickly flies multiply and cause a lot of trouble in the room where people live. Moreover, these annoying winged ones can appear in the house at any time of the year. Even if one individual is destroyed, after a short time, as if nothing had happened, they again fly everywhere and carry pathogenic bacteria. To finally clear the room of such insects, you just need to find out where they come from, what is their source, what are they dangerous to human health and which one to choose effective remedy.

Where do flies come from in the house and what are they

It is obvious that the first measure in the fight against winged carriers of harmful microorganisms and bacteria should be fought, first of all, by eliminating the source of their appearance. This may be a factor in unhygienic indoor conditions, which serve as a beneficial environment for brood. And you can simply restrict access to flying into the room for such individuals. The most likely sources from which flies fly into the house and then breed there are the following sources:

Wide spaces for penetration from the outside:

• open windows;
• balcony doors;
• window;
• Entrance door.

Narrower passages through which flies can enter a house or apartment:

• ventilation ducts (this is especially true for cleaned risers in apartment buildings, as well as ventilation in a private house);
• cracks in old window frames(including between glass and frames);
• in poorly sealed holes and crevices, between the floor, ceiling, wall and pipes of water or sewer (and other) communications.

Food sources that may particularly attract many such winged birds are:

• poorly cleaned garbage chutes;
• leaky closed drain pits for suburban areas;
• the presence of missing food in the room;
• fragrant foods and other sources of strong organic odor.

Insects can often also enter the house especially actively at certain times, season. So, if the cold is approaching, then they are looking for a warm place where they can hide or hibernate, and therefore penetrate even through the old frames in the windows. In the event that the source of buzzing winged birds entering the house is eliminated, it is enough hold several events to improve their living conditions:

• Seal all cracks that lead to the street.
• If you plan to change windows to airtight plastic ones, then most of the problem will go away by itself.
• Put a mosquito net on the opening of the window, window, balcony or front door.
• In the lightest version, you can simply hang the mesh fabric before you open the window or doors.
• Seal all cracks well mounting foam where the joints between the walls of the pipeline and the floors of the house are poorly processed after repair.
• do more often general cleaning with disinfectants.

You can, of course, be surprised that these insects can enter a home through ventilation, but this, although less common, does happen. You can’t block the ventilation ducts in any way, because their function is to work at full strength to ensure the flow fresh air into the room. If you have automatic devices installed for these purposes, then the flies will not penetrate there, because the holes for them are too small there. If the ventilation is simply covered with a standard classic grate, then the only thing that can be done is to simply cover the ventilation grate with some material with a fine mesh.

Fly creatures in the premises where people live, most often the following types are found:

• small room;
• synantnope;
• yellowish drosophila;
• meat gray;
• cheese and greasy;
• sour midges and others.

What are the health risks

A few words should also be said about what kind of flies can pose a danger for a person. Their importunity is not such a problem as the fact that they are carriers of pathogenic bacteria. On their paws, insects can carry any infection, because they often like to feed and crawl on various decay products. Regardless of the variety, these creatures can serve as sources of infection for the following diseases:

• distribution of eggs of worms;
• typhoid (abdominal) and paratyphoid;
• tuberculosis diseases;
• diphtheria;
• poliomyelitis and others.

Getting rid of flies: effective means

In addition to the priority measures taken in the house to eliminate the source of the appearance of winged carriers of diseases, it also makes sense to use specialized means for the destruction of already existing adults, as well as their offspring. For this, they can be used household level drugs the following groups:

• sprays and aerosol devices;
• solutions, concentrates and powders;
• fumigators with removable plates or special liquid;
• duct tape and other types of traps;
• folk remedies and methods of struggle - the cultivation of repellent plants (for example, castor oil), the use of kerosene, the smell of which insects do not like, and other methods.

For a broader idea, here are some examples of the most best ways protecting your home from fly subspecies of winged germ carriers.

Steps

fly traps

Use light traps to catch larger flies. UV traps are great for catching houseflies and other large flies and harmful insects. Flies are attracted to light, and as a result, they stick to the adhesive surface or are killed by an electrical discharge.

• Place light traps at a height of 1.2-1.8 meters from the floor.
• Place light traps so that their light is not visible from the street, otherwise it will attract new flies into the house.
• Use light traps that are designed for indoor use. High voltage electric fly swatters are designed for outdoor use, they can cause dirt and mess in the home.

1. Use sticky tape to catch flies. Sticky tape or paper is a simple and effective way to get rid of large numbers of adult flies. Purchase one or more rolls of fly tape and hang it up where these insects like to congregate.

   • Do not hang sticky tape directly over areas where you cook or eat, as flies or their remnants may break off the tape and fall down.

2. For fishing fruit flies use vinegar or wine traps. Fruit flies are very attracted to fermented fruit products such as red wine and apple cider vinegar. A variety of simple traps can be made that use wine or vinegar to attract and kill adult fruit flies:

   • Pour some apple cider vinegar into a bottle or jar and cover it with plastic wrap. Secure the film with a rubber band. Make a small hole in the film so that the flies smell the vinegar and crawl inside. The flies will not be able to get back out and will drown in the vinegar.
   • Pour some vinegar into a bowl and add a few drops of dish soap. This remedy will loosen the surface tension of the liquid, and the flies attracted by the smell will drown in the vinegar.
   • Take a red wine bottle that has very little wine left in the bottom. Flies will be able to get into the bottle, but it will be difficult for them to get out.
   • You can also purchase ready-made fruit fly traps.

3. Destroy flies with an electric fly swatter. Electric fly swatters are a cleaner version of conventional fly swatters. They kill flies and other insects at the slightest touch, thus avoiding dirty marks.

   • Electric fly swatters are safe enough, but they can cause a nasty electric shock, so keep them away from children and pets.

4. Kill flies directly with pyrethrin spray. Apart from doorways, you can spray flies with a spray, which will lead to their quick death. However, be careful not to use pyrethrin spray near food or food preparation. Although pyrethrin is relatively safe, in significant amounts it can be harmful to human or pet health if swallowed or inhaled. Follow the precautionary instructions carefully.

   Use insecticidal fly bait. There are many different insecticidal baits for flies on the market. Insects eat the poisoned bait and die. These baits can be purchased as insecticide-loaded traps, tablets, or liquid solutions that can be applied to fly areas.

   • Sticker decoys that can be attached to glass windows are popular (eg Ortho Home Defense Fly Killer Window Decal). The flies eat the pesticide contained on the surface of the stickers and usually die near the window and on the windowsill.
   • Fly baits can be dangerous to children and pets, so follow the manufacturer's instructions at all times and use baits in places that are difficult for children and pets to reach.

Natural fly repellents

1. Use essential oils to kill and repel flies. Many plants contain natural insecticides and insect repellents. The essential oils of such plants are useful and relatively safe means to get rid of flies in the house. Essential oils of plants such as thyme (thyme), cloves, geranium, basil, lavender, lemongrass and peppermint have an insecticidal and repellent effect.

   • Spray essential oil on areas where flies like to congregate.
   • Add a few drops of a suitable essential oil to an essential oil diffuser and place it in a fly-infested room.

2. Grow fly-repellent plants in your home. Flies avoid basil bay leaf, mint, rosemary and lavender. Grow plants on your kitchen windowsill to keep flies away. In addition, in this case, you will have fresh herbs and spices in your kitchen that you can use in cooking.

   Kill flies with kieselguhr (diatomaceous earth). This non-toxic insecticidal dust works by drying out and damaging the outer skeletons of insects. Scoop up some fine diatomaceous earth dust with a rag and shake it over houseplants, trash cans, and other areas where flies often gather.

Keep flies out of the house

Afterwards, thoroughly wash all used mops, sponges and cloths and hang them up to dry. Flies can start in wet and dirty mops and rags.

   Wash sinks and other drains. Drainage can accumulate organic matter that attracts certain types of flies. Use tools and products to clear clogged or clogged drains, then scrub the drain with a stiff brush.

   • If it doesn't help easy cleaning drain, try using an antibacterial drain cleaner such as Bio-Clean. Make sure this tool is suitable for your local processing system Wastewater. As a rule, for greater effectiveness, such remedies must be applied several times over several weeks.
   • Treat drains with S-hydroprene (Gentrol). This mild insecticide prevents larvae from maturing.

If you often open windows and doors to ventilate the premises, put insect protection in the form of nets on them.
