F'ing Fruit Flies!

We hadn't had fruit flies all summer until I bought bananas at TJ's yesterday.

Didn't someone post once about a mix of dish soap and something to kill fruit flies? I did a google search and most of them want you to make a fly trap out with a plastic wrap top and put some fruit in it to rot & attract them. That doesn't sound like much fun to me.

Apple cider vinegar...I also tried regualr vinegar mixed w/ honey and the dish soap cause it's what I had and I was too cheap to buy anything!

These are known as "dog pecker knats" at our house.  They are so effing annoying, hence the name.

See, I told all of y'all that I wasn't fancy.

We do cheap sweet wine with a couple drops of dishsoap and it works wonders you don't have to cover it the dish soap prevents them from getting back out once they are in.

Heloise just had something in her article in the Living section of the Omaha World Herald yesterday.  Water, vinegar and sugar in a jar with saran wrap over the top (rubber band around it to secure), poke holes in the saran wrap and the fruit flies fly in because of the attraction to the sweetness and die.
