While many of us are leaving our windows open in a bid to catch a little breeze during the summer heat, that can have unfortunate consequences. As well as cooler air, an open window will often let in flies.
Some people will resort to chemical sprays or repellents to keep the insects at bay, but others either want to avoid harsh sprays or just don't like the smell.
Luckily though, there are things you can do to banish flies for good, that don't cost a fortune and won't fill your house with artificial chemicals.
