In our yard there are small black colored flies that only appear to be in the morning hour hours and I want to find a natural way to get rid of them. Any advice?

My tiled outside patio is where the issues are going on.

Hang a bag full of water up outside I dont know why I dont know how but it works! My friend did this several years ago and she did not know why it worked but it does!

Mint bushes are good to control fleas and ants as well. But be for-warned and careful where you plant them because they will seed out and spread like crazy. A better alternative would be to plant them in containers or spray your yard with a solution of 3 parts mint extract 1 part water.

Bat boxes are a great way to control insects.

Get some frogs/toads/chameleons and let them loose in your back yard. I think they'd eat them.
