FAQs
How do you get rid of a fly infestation?

You can create a homemade fly trap that works both indoors and outside. Fermented apple juice, or Apple cider vinegar trap, is a fantastic treat for these flying insects. Another efficient way to get rid of insects is with a repellent spray.
Lavender has a pleasant aroma and may successfully repel insects. In addition, the faint clove fragrance repels flies. So, combining lemon with this bit of spice will result in a safe and efficient insect repellent.
Should I call pest control for flies?

Because their two wings are beating in unison, house flies make a buzzing sound. In addition, house flies often have four black stripes on their thorax and a grey look. An adult house fly length ranges from 1/8 to 1″ (4 to 7.5 mm).
