An Old Trick to Keep Flies and Cockroaches Out of Your Home

Introduction: Flies and cockroaches are common household pests that can be difficult to get rid of. While there are many chemical solutions available, some natural, old tricks have proven effective in keeping these pests at bay. One such method is using a combination of natural repellents and maintaining a clean environment to discourage their presence.

1. Bay Leaves for Cockroaches
Bay leaves are a natural repellent for cockroaches, as they dislike the scent. Placing crushed bay leaves in areas where you’ve seen cockroaches can deter them from entering those spaces.

✔ How to Do It:

Place whole bay leaves or crush them in corners, kitchen cabinets, and other areas where roaches tend to hide.

Replace the leaves every couple of weeks to maintain their effectiveness.

2. Cloves for Flies
Flies find the smell of cloves unpleasant. By using them as a natural air freshener, you can discourage flies from entering your home.

✔ How to Do It:

Place whole cloves in a small cloth bag and hang it in areas like windowsills or doorways where flies might enter.

Alternatively, create a clove spray by boiling cloves in water and spraying the mixture around the home.
