Fly Control and Infestations

Flies are one of Nature's least-desired members of the insect family; they serve no useful purpose, and to the contrary, they are vector carriers of all sorts of pathogenic diseases to man and domestic animals. Breeding in manures, sewage, and other decaying organic matters, flies must be controlled 'lest they become intolerable nuisances. An effective weapon in the never-ending fight against flies is

This 100% food-grade insecticidal spray downs and kills these flying pests in seconds and leaves behind an invisible film that masks the smells that attract flies, like human foods, and sends them elsewhere. Made with pure orange peel oils and labeled for use in kitchens, schools, hospitals, apartments, restaurants, and food factories, BUGS 'R' DONE™ can be sprayed around food, children, pets, and fish in homes and elsewhere without concern.

Answer 2

Last year I bought a very small Venus fly trap plant at Walmart for my daughter - just because it was cool. BUT, we still have the plant and it has caught many flies over the year! Sometimes I can take the plant to the fly if it is on my window, etc and the fly trap will snatch it up - it is really cool to watch!

Answer 3

I've used various traps with no success, yet. However, the good ole fly swatter works, and when the fly is someplace you don't want to smack, (ie, like on a valuable vase, or in a corner) I use a spray bottle of windex. Works like a champ! One squirt knocks it down and another squirt puts it away.

Answer 4

Use a fly swatter.
