Guest guest Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Hi Folks: Know there has to be folks on the list that have a proven method to fight flies. Any pointers out there? How about our Canadian friends? Have heard you have black fly problems in the great outdoors. We have cattle next door, and with critters of our own outside, the flies love to hop on over to try to feed around their dishes, anything dropped on the deck, etc. Grrrrrrr They are especially bad this year already! We try to feed at darkthirty and darkthirty, but that doesn't always work out. My one reliable isn't working as well on flies as it does on skeeters and such. Drops of Lemon joy in a bowl of water. Input needed & much appreciated. A most fragrant evening to ya, deb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Sprinkle fresh basil leaves on the table and around the deck to keep the flies away. Never tried it myself but read it somewhere. Good luck.. Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
