How to dry and pickle fish without flies

1. Use a gauze net or screen material

Use a container or lid to dry and pickle fish. Although flies can be released, However, since a tight lid is not conducive to the moisture dispersion of the fish and is prone to moisture, a gauze or window screen material can be used to make a sealing lid, which can prevent flies and provide ventilation.

2. Drying in the hot sun

Every morning, evening and cloudy days are the peak periods of fly activity. Therefore, you must choose to dry pickled fish outdoors on a sunny day. When the temperature of the sun is relatively high, that is, when the sun feels hot on your skin, you can start drying.

3. Large-hole mosquito net

In order to prevent flies, you can hang a large-hole mosquito net with good ventilation outdoors, and hang the fish in strings in the mosquito net.

4. Powerful fan or blower

Use a powerful fan or blower to blow on the dried fish, which can not only drive away flies, but also dry the fish, killing two birds with one stone.

5. Thick smoke repels flies

Flies are afraid of fire smoke. Therefore, when the weather is not sunny enough, you can light a fire around the curing shed. The fire should not be too bright. To emit billowing smoke, generally use sawdust, grain, broken straw and other small materials to burn part of it, and then sprinkle some water to emit thick smoke.
