No more flies!

Do you have problems with flies congretating in front of your door in hopes of a free pass to the cool indoors? Banish them with basil! Place a pot with basil growing in it next to your door to keep them at bay. We tried this near a door where the flies were a nuisance, and just a day or two after the pot's new spot, the flies were gone. It's also nice to be able to pick fresh basil from your doorstep too!

I thought this was just dried lavender. What a great tip!
