Are there plants i could easily cultivate to discourage certain types of insects from hanging around? (hexbear.net)

I've recently moved apartments and the architecture is such that lots of flies get trapped in a loop near my back sliding door. It's sometimes dozens or more just spinning in a circle.

I was fortunate to get a unit with ample growing space and was hoping there's some kind of flower or plant that flies will avoid before getting trapped in the doom spiral.

I can catch one of them in a safe bug net and take a picture if needed.

Thanks in advance

They're also beautiful and cool, though they only work in summer/with lots of sun
