How to control flies at home

 Maintain sanitary conditions where
animals are kept and where of any kind
in tightly covered containers.
 Garbage containers should be tightly
covered. Empty them often so they
don’t spill and attract flies.
 Bury or burn garbage if there is no
regular garbage collection in your area
 Since flies are hard to chase and swat,
indoor spraying of flies with insecticides
is very effective. Aerosol insecticides
are recommended because of the fine
mist they emit. You can also use traps
like sticky paper top catch flies.
