In the heat and moisture of summer, insects like to come out into the world in large numbers. One of the most tedious to deal with is the fly. During the hotter summer months, flies can be huge pests—interrupting barbecues, invading your kitchen, and attempting to escape to the cooler temperatures of your home.
Here are a few simple ways to get rid of these pests without purchasing those sticky fly traps at the store that hardly work anyway. Whip up a fly trap or some repellent from items you probably already have around the house to keep the flies out of your way.
