Guest guest Posted July 20, 2006 Report Share Posted July 20, 2006 Hi Can anyone tell me if I can keep flies away from my home by burning citronella oil or any other oil? I know that citronella is supposed to keep insects away but I'm more interested in specifically keeping flies out. Thanks Najma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 Hi, Try using garlic tea. Crush a few cloves of garlic, and boil for about 10 mins in a litre of water. Cool, and spray this on surfaces that attract flies. You can also dip a cloth in the tea and wipe the surfaces.
