Getting Rid of Flies : Fly Solution

by Tammy H

After desperately trying to find something to get rid of the flies I finally stumbled across this one. I wasn't sure it would really work, but it did! My poor Golden Retriever was covered in flies even after many baths. I lightly sprayed it on her (avoiding her eyes) and she now has some relief from these awful nasty flies. With a few drops of dish soap and water I finally found a solution to our fly problem. I also sprayed the entire patio area and screen door to keep them from coming into the house. I only wish I found this solution sooner! I did have to repeat a few time during the day, but it worked! http://www.onemoretimeevents.com/2013/09/share-it-one-more-time-party-and.html

Dish Soap, Water and a water bottle that is all you need.
A few drops of liquid dish soap
add some water to a spray bottle.

    Same solution also kills crickets, grasshoppers, ants, and earwigs when sprayed directly on them. Works almost instantly. (You may have to add more than just a few drops of liquid dish soap, though).
