You can get some of these jars and fill them with a couple of inches of cider vinegar. The flies come up through the hole in the bottom and can't find their way out. I have one of these in my yard and it catches flies and gnats. I sure wish that it would catch mosquitos too. I don't know if it would attract the black flies or not.

I've heard that putting fabric softner sheets in your pockets repels mosquitos. I'm going to have to try this one again and see if it works.
