HOW TO GET RID OF HOUSEFLIES
All garbage and horse manure from stables should be always
kept covered and removed once each week in summer, and all
houses, yards and alleys kept free from filth
Persuade your neighbors to take care of their refuse.
To thus deprive flies of their breeding places is the best way to
get rid of them.
All houses and stores where food is exposed for sale should be
thoroughly protected by screens, and any stray flies should be
caught upon sticky fly paper, trapped
The careless and dirty storekeeper must be controlled by public
opinion; otherwise he will allow flies to infect the food he sells and
continue to distribute disease germs among his customers.
