Jon Wood owner at the ORGANIC HOMESTEAD GARDENING yahoo group posted this helpful recipe. I am an avid fan of Jon and the OGH group.
Moms Homemade Fly Paper
2 C milk
2 T black pepper
2 T white sugar
2 T brown sugar
Brown paper bags, cut into strips.
Boil milk, pepper, and sugar together for 5 minutes. Simmer
uncovered 5 minutes longer, until thickened, and then let cool.
Wind the brown paper strips into a tight roll and drop them into
the milk mixture. Let them become completely saturated. Rewind
the strips gently and let them air dry on a cookie sheet.
They are ready to hang when they are sticky
to the touch.
To use, suspend the strips up and out of the way wherever flies
are a problem.
CAUTION: Keep the strips away from young children, especially
after they are covered with flies.
