It seems that the nagging fruit flies always seem to come around every summer. Especially with all the foods and beverages fermenting around my house. I think they are annoying and I also do not want them to lay eggs in my kombucha scobys and have larvae crawling around (don't ask me know i know that :( its not pretty) I have tried many different methods and have found the best way to get rid of them and it is super easy.
Here is what you are going to need:
a jar
a few drops of dish soap
apple cider vinegar
a piece of paper
a piece or two of tape
Take the jar and put a couple drops of dish soap in the bottom then fill the jar up with about a half an inch or so of apple cider vinegar. Then make a little cone with the paper and make the cone wide enough that the paper does not touch the liquid on the bottom, you might have to cut your paper a little bit. Then put a piece of tape on the cone and voila. You have your very own fruit fly trap. Place the jar in places where fruit flies tend to hang out. I have one next to my fruit bowl and one next to my kombucha. I change the liquid out about once a week.
