I love having cows as my neighbors here in Lincoln but it isn't without its pesky annoyances. Flies, ladybugs, stink bugs winter over in the walls and find their way into every room. Does anyone know of some really effective but natural, (i.e. non-toxic), ways to trap flies? I've tried vinegar, dish soap,and sugar solution and it doesn't seem to work. I've googled and read what there seems to be about this and that recipe was pretty much all I could find. They have died back in the cold but do emerge on sunny days with the sun hitting the windows and on any given warm day, there could be up to 10-15 flies in every room!! I'd love to figure out how to catch flies only, and not the ladybugs and stink bugs, but alas, I accept that I may have to see the demise of those more favorable bugs in the pursuit to be fly-free!.
While they aren't a huge problem now, I want to be ready for warmer weather when they start to emerge in droves again. Any helpful suggestions are most appreciated. Thank you *~Jai Anna* <[email protected]>
