  • Use fly paper.
  • That's what I thaught, but it really does work. I didn't really specify, but the bag needs to be hung on the outside of the door. Give it about 1 week and then let me know if it works for you. Thanks
  • I read that factory farmers buy something called Dirt Daubers, sometimes known as Mud Daubers from horticultural/biological supply companies to control flies. They lay their eggs in the flies or the maggots to kill them off. They are supposed to be really cheap, they are self reproducing and somehow don't leave any residue after the kill. They can also drive away wasps. They sort of look like wasps but they don't bite or sting and are kind of more lanky. But they build some pretty cool nests. Probably not the easiest meathod, but possibly the coolest. =P
