 Alert | Chitwoods...see Debbie...has this bag in two sizes.
It has an attractant for flies and a fly killer in the bag. You activate with water and it will hold up to 40K flies. Once they are in they cannot escape.
We have hung two on our pergola and the flies have virtually disappeared. For the first time I can really enjoy my patio. Even as far as 120 ft from the bag I am no longer bothered by flies.
Cost about 7 bucks for the large one.
The only downside is you might get a whiff of what attracts the flies and it is not pleasant. Trick is to hang em high. | |

Sometimes we just make life to difficult.

Alert | Good thing about those - they get the flies.. bad thing is - they stink, and attract flies.. so you have more around the yard..
Ace Hardware has those as well. That is where I got mine. Worked.. but I had more flies. Gone now since I don't have it. | | | |

Alert | I will have to remember this when and if we have a problem with flies.
| |
Just doing it one day at a time. Change is good and it should be looked upon as an improvment! not a problem.
