House-Fly Repellent...?


Question:Hi...
Does anyone have a really good recipe for a home-made House-Fly Repellent ?
We're having a really bad fly season here. They're all over the county. I've tried Smudge-Pots, Chemical Foggers, Brush Fires, and Incense Sticks; but nothing seems to work very well; nor very long.
With all the rain we're having, everything is really clean; so where are they coming from ? How can I get rid of them. The only thing working permanently right now is my kid's BB-Gun !
Thanks !

Answers:
do not laugh - fill a few zip lock bags w/ water and hang them over the doorways and around the edge of your porch. i know, it sounds ridiculous, but i have seen it work day in and day out here in the South.


try cleaning your house and taking a shower everyday
Have you tried citronella? It worked for me outside that is.
