Treatment Options:

  • Placing yellow sticky traps out in your garden or applying a homemade garlic spray or neem oil can help. Make sure to not apply the neem oil though when the temperature is above 90, or else you could suffocate your plant!
     
  • The use of beneficial insect friends, such as green lacewings, ladybugs, and praying mantis, can also help to get rid of these flies.
