Have sprayed about 20 today. They’re everywhere!!! How do I stop them coming in? Has anyone got any tips?

Mint plants and a big clear jug filled with water and pennies at the bottom. ( like a predator)
Peppermint on cotton balls at the windows.

Mesh window screens. Magic 😁

I hate them so much it’s bordering on irrational. But they have the WHOLE of outside to fly around and yet they manage to fly inside my house.

I don’t mind the big ones so much they usually go back outside quickly enough, it’s the smaller ones that just fly around the same space that drive me insane

SO TRUE. I’ve sprayed the house but they just won’t leave me alone. I need the windows open it’s too hot!

@slayb what’s the theory behind the pennies?
