Spaying Pine Sol around your doors will also keep the flies away.

Planting lavender in a pot and placing it near your door will also help keep the flies away.

Thanks for reminding me of this. I had heard this a couple of years ago but had forgotten. I will surely try it.

I have heard that the reason this works has to do with the water’s reflection and the fly’s sight. Maybe the water magnifies the fly’s image and scares it. Don’t really know and I am just guessing. I just know it works for me.
