A Natural But Effective Remedy Against Flies.

Bzz bzz...the flies are here and they're coveting your pizza.

Need something to scare them away from your home and make them want to come back flying in front of your nose?

Flies, like many other insects, flee certain odors like the plague.

Our tip of the day is therefore going to consist of establishing between the flies and your house a real curtain of smell with basil.

A Natural But Effective Remedy Against Flies.

How to

1. Get a pot, potting soil and some basil seeds.

2. Plant the seeds in the pot with a little potting soil.

3. Water.

4. Wait till it grows!

5. Cut a few leaves from your basil.

6. Scatter them all over the house.

Result

There you go, the flies bothered by the good smell of basil disappear :-)

Then all you have to do is continue to maintain your little pot of basil with a little water from time to time.

You just have to make sure that the soil is always a little damp.

That's it that's all. Flies will leave you alone as long as there is even a very slight basil smell.

Your turn...
