Looks like it does when it blooms! Check google, here's one link. http://forums.gardenweb.com/discussions/1947122/does-mint-attract-flies-not-gnats Here's another link for fly repellent herbs since you have an herb garden. http://www.gardeningknowhow.com/edible/herbs/hgen/fly-repelling-herb-plants.htmdoes anyone know if mint attracts flies? I have heard that it repels and now I wonder if it would attract. I does have a sweet smell that the flies might like.
That i the only thing that I have done different this year. I have an herb garden in the backyard along with other gardens, well mint was one of my
new additions, or I should say new plants that I planted back there this year. the other annuals and herbs were there in previous years where fly strike
was not a problem. Just wondering, if anyone has an knowledge on the mint plant and flies that would be great. thanks.
