3. Vinegar Cleaning Solution
Flies love the scent of food, especially sugar and rotting matter. Cleaning surfaces with vinegar helps eliminate those smells and leaves behind a scent they don’t like.
Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle and use it to wipe down:
- Counters
- Cutting boards
- Trash can lids
- Sink drains
Clean and fly-free!
Extra Tips to Keep Flies Away
- Cover food and compost bins tightly.
- Keep windows and doors closed or install screens.
- Empty trash regularly and clean any spills or crumbs immediately.
- Use citrus peels or cloves near windows for added fly resistance.

You don’t need toxic sprays or expensive gadgets to deal with flies—just a bottle of vinegar and a few household items. With these homemade tricks, you can scare flies away naturally, keeping your home clean, safe, and fly-free.
So next time a swarm shows up uninvited, head to your pantry before the hardware store. The solution might just be in your salad dressing bottle.
