Human Fly Repellent

Have you ever woken up one morning to a nasty surprise? You roll out of bed in your pajamas and head to the kitchen for breakfast, when suddenly, pop! A human fly lays eggs in your hair. There’s nothing worse than finding a human fly in your kitchen on a Saturday morning. It’s like finding mold on your sandwich; you really don’t want to find it, but if you do, you shouldn’t have bought that bread so cheap back when. Here, I am going to go over some of the tips and tricks I’ve learned after years and years of professional experience pest-control.

Human Fly Repellent

Enjoying the outdoors is a favorite pastime until a swarm of uninvited guests shows up: FLIES.

Bug sprays and insect repellents such as DEET are proven and effective fly repellents, but in recent years, people have looked for more natural alternatives.

Commercial products promising natural fly deterrence have gained popularity, as did homemade fly spray recipes. Type “how to get rid of flies” into a search engine and a host of formulations will pour out, all promising fly control.

Look closer, though, and you’ll see little scientific evidence those remedies work at pest control. That’s slowly changing as scientists begin to look at these folkloric concoctions — and discover that some may actually work.

So, which natural fly deterrents are scientifically proven to keep flies at bay?
You might be surprised!

Historic Uses of Plants as Fly Repellents

It’s unquestioned that at least some plants have insect repellent qualities. It stands to reason: Plants don’t want insects gnawing on them, any more than we do. So as they evolved, plants developed natural bug repellent properties. Many plants release a vapor when eaten, for example. Ancient people didn’t know that, but they did know having plants around and burning their leaves would lessen the bother.

Some are more effective than others, but little data has been collected on the topic.

Mostly Harmless, Largely Untested

The fact that plant-based fly deterrents are natural allows them to fly under the regulatory radar. Because they are natural and not seen as a serious safety risk by the Environmental Protection Agency, they are not registered with or evaluated by the EPA for effectiveness. Without science to prove how they repel flies and other insects, these natural fly repellent sprays are more a matter of personal anecdotes and folklore.

This is particularly true of botanical repellents — products labeled “natural” because they include plant-based fly spray chemicals. However, according to Consumer Reports, which conducts its own independent product tests, in repeated testing, most of these natural ways don’t work well.

“Recently, commercial repellent products containing plant-based ingredients have gained increasing popularity among consumers, as these are commonly perceived as ‘safe’ in comparison to long-established synthetic repellents although this is sometimes a misconception,” says a 2011 study “Plant-Based Insect Repellents” published in Malaria Journal. Much more standardized testing is needed, the study said, “to better evaluate repellent compounds and develop new products that offer high repellency as well as good consumer safety.
