Houseflies outside - how to get rid of them?
Posted on 6/6/20 at 2:13 pm

I’ve been under constant attack these past 2 weeks in my backyard and patio with damn house flies. I’ve been pretty successful at spraying to keep mosquitos and other bugs away, but these houseflies are relentless.
My yard is clean, fenced in, no garbage or compost or dog poo... I can’t figure out what they’re even interested in other than personally pissing me the frick off

Get some golden malrin from tractor supply or feed store.. you can either set up bait stations or sprinkle it on the ground.. just make sure your pets can't get to it.. it will kill a animal quick..

Tractor Supply sells a fly trap with bait. It does work although you must change the bait after a while because it will start. But it des work!

There's not really many critters in this world that I've been associated with in my environment that disgust me more than the common fly.
Try to have a picnic, BBQ, seafood boil, etc. outside this time of year and they are going to be the party crashers that nobody really wants.
Nothing worse in my mind to be eating a plate of food and looking down seeing flies walking around in the potato salad and knowing full well they have likely been crawling over a dead carcass or pile of shite just moments before.
Absolutely disgusting creatures.

This fly bags mentioned really do work. They stink so careful where you place it we have one out now with 100’s flys in it. Just bought a replacement at Lowe’s for under $5. Will swap out in trash day. Best bang

I used these when I had dogs in the kennel and they work great. You can also put them out of site and they still attract flies.
