Despite a very short life cycle of about 28 days, flies can literally invade our homes, especially the kitchen, and become very annoying and dangerous due to the bacteria and other microorganisms they can carry in our food.
The problem of flies in the house is particularly evident in the warmer months, when high temperatures encourage their reproduction.
There are dozens of fly and mosquito sprays available in supermarkets, but they are all full of chemicals that, while repelling the annoying insects, are harmful to both our health and the environment.
The most well-known and effective way to keep flies out of the house and scent the kitchen is actually completely natural and can be prepared in just a few minutes.
A lemon is halved and a dozen cloves are inserted into the pulp. Place the product on the windowsill, balcony or near another place frequented by flies.

Other means to keep flies away:
Poultices filled with water. We have probably noticed bags filled with water on balconies or windows and wondered what they are for. This remedy is an effective natural repellent against flies. The reason is simple: when the sun’s rays penetrate the water, they create a prism that steals hatred.
Apple Cider Vinegar. To make a fly trap, cut a plastic bottle in half, pour vinegar into the bottom, then invert the lid like a funnel. Flies attracted by the vinegar get into the bottle and stay there.
Aromatic plants. The scent of certain essential oils and plants such as lavender, mint, lemongrass, basil or eucalyptus have natural repellent properties. Simply sprinkle a little essential oil in different parts of the house or plant some seedlings to keep flies away.
