## **How to Use It: Simple Steps**
1. **Mix the Ingredients**
Combine the water, apple cider vinegar, and essential oils in the spray bottle. If you’re adding dish soap, include it now and shake well.
2. **Shake and Spray**
Spray the mixture lightly around windows, door frames, kitchen counters, trash bins, and any areas where flies tend to gather.
3. **Watch the Magic Happen**
Within moments, you’ll notice flies either avoiding the area completely or dropping away—instantly repelled by the scent.

## **Why It Works**
* **Eucalyptus and peppermint oils** are natural insect repellents. Flies hate their strong, menthol-like aroma.
* **Apple cider vinegar** attracts flies—but combined with the oils, it acts more like a trap or deterrent than a lure.
* **Dish soap**, when included, helps break the surface tension and can even kill flies on contact.

## **Extra Tips for a Fly-Free Home**
* Keep trash tightly sealed and clean bins regularly.
* Don’t leave food or fruit exposed—especially ripe bananas or sugary items.
* Place a few cloves in a lemon and leave it on the counter for extra repelling power.
* Use this spray daily for long-term results or refresh areas as needed.
