Have you ever sat at a picnic table on a beautiful Sunday afternoon, only to be swarmed by unwanted flies? The following simple instructions will teach you how to get rid of house flies using only the mild scent of cloves, an odor that house flies in general hate.
Step
Step 1. Take a sweet, ripe apple (any apple)
Step 2. Take 20 -30 cloves
Step 3. Randomly stick the cloves into the apple
Step 4. Place the freshly decorated apple with cloves on a plate and place it in the center of the picnic table
Step 5. Observe
You will be amazed to see how all the flies suddenly disappeared in no time. They hate the delicate smell of cloves and will never come back to "share your food" as long as you put these clover-adorned apples on the table. Enjoy your meal.
Tips
- Whole cloves can also be wrapped in a piece of cheesecloth and tied, then hung in places where flies enter the house or hover, such as on doors or windows. To release more of the aroma, squeeze the packet of cloves occasionally.
- There's a fly in your house and you want to get it out! When the sun goes down, turn off all the lights in the house and turn on the bathroom lights. The fly will go to the bathroom and you can hit it there.
- If you only have ground cloves, you can use this method: Pierce the apple a few times. Garnish with clove powder and place on a small plate. Then, fill your pitcher with cold water, heat it on "low," and add 3 tablespoons of ground cloves to the water. This mixture doubles as an air freshener!
- Buy whole cloves at the supermarket. They look like little sticks with a ball at the end. Insert the stick part into the apple.
- Flies often cling upside down on warm ceilings at night and in the morning. Pour some liquid soap into a cup and add water so that there is a little froth on top. Then walk under the fly and raise the glass at the fly. When a fly senses danger it will descend a few centimeters to fly. That's when he will be trapped in the soapy water. You can kill a bunch of little bullies with one glass.
- Clove oil can be used during cleaning as another source of repelling indoor flies.
